Itching, boils, and skin discoloration around the vulva may be signs of a fungal or bacterial infection, or a pitta-vata imbalance in Ayurveda. To address this, a combination of internal and external remedies is often recommended. You can try herbs like *Guduchi*, *Neem*, and *Turmeric* to balance pitta and support detoxification, as well as to fight infections. For topical relief, applying *Aloe Vera gel* or *Neem oil* may soothe itching and reduce inflammation. A cooling, anti-inflammatory diet is essential, avoiding spicy, oily, and acidic foods, while including more hydrating, calming foods. Practicing good hygiene and wearing breathable, cotton clothing can help prevent further irritation. If symptoms persist, it's important to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for a more personalized treatment plan.

It sounds like you’re dealing with a tough situation. Itching and boils in the vulva area can really be uncomfortable and worrisome. First things first, it might be a good idea to see a healthcare professional to rule out any infections or other serious concerns, since they might need a proper check. But hey, let's dive into some Ayurvedic insights too.
In Ayurveda, skin issues like this could be related to an imbalance in the doshas, maybe Pitta and Kapha, which influences skin health. They lead to heat and dampness resulting in the current symptoms. Soothing your skin with a mix of herbal remedies and lifestyle change might help regain balance.
Starting with diet, try to reduce spicy, oily, and very salty foods—those just fire up Pitta. Instead, bring in cooling foods like cucumbers, melons, and coconut water. Turmeric, known for its anti-inflammatory properties, can be quite beneficial. A pinch added to your meals, or taken with warm milk, might help soothe the symptoms.
Now, when it comes to external application, consider using aloe vera gel directly on the affected parts. It's cooling and soothing. Neem oil is another good one; it has great antiseptic properties—just dilute a few drops with some coconut oil and gently apply.
Also, wear loose, breathable fabrics like cotton to keep moisture and heat down there under control. Staying hydrated is super important too. Better digestion always helps, so warm water sipped through the day keeps agni in check and supports detoxification.
These recommendations are to complement care, not replace medical advice, so if anything feels off or worsens, keep seeking professional help. An integrative approach can be the ticket to feeling better!
