Vyanga - #5995
For the last year, I’ve noticed dark patches on my cheeks and forehead that won’t go away no matter what creams I use. After some research, I think this might be vyanga as described in Ayurveda. Can anyone confirm if these stubborn pigmentation marks are indeed vyanga? I’ve read that vyanga can be caused by stress, hormonal imbalances, or even exposure to sunlight. My lifestyle is pretty stressful, and I spend a lot of time outdoors. Are these common causes of vyanga? What’s the best Ayurvedic treatment for vyanga? I’ve seen mentions of herbs like manjistha and turmeric. Do these actually work, and how should they be applied or consumed? Would external treatments like face packs or oils be enough, or is internal cleansing necessary to treat vyanga? I’m also curious if diet plays a role. Should I avoid spicy foods or focus on eating cooling foods to manage vyanga? For anyone who has dealt with this condition, how long did it take to see improvement, and were the results permanent? Any personal experiences or tips on managing vyanga naturally would be greatly appreciated.
