Guest guest Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 The skin diseases for most people are caused by mental stress and blood toxins. Many other diseases belong to this class, caused or exacerbated by mental stress. The skin not only covers the body, but also contributes to the beauty of the body. Cleaner and smoother the skin, better is health. One of the tests carried out by Vaidyas in diagnosis is noting the skin color, texture, dampness/dryness/blemishes/erruptions etc. In Psoriasis, intense itching is the main symptom. The elbow joint, knee joint, calf muscle, entire back, neck are the possible areas where small and big flat circular eruptions/rashes develop. If there is a previous wound in some area, the disease develops there rapidly. Initially reddish patches erupt. Excess skin cells develop and itching causes the loss of skin cells. The appearance is characterized by raised, inflamed, red lesions covered by a silvery white scale. It is typically found on the elbows, knees, scalp and lower back. Our mind/body emotional mechanism exhibits reactions to affection, tensions, grief, anxiety etc. Generally it is observed that the initial outbreak occurs in the age 10 to 30 years. The disease affects nails too and is believed to be a hereditary gift. The incidence is more in fare skin people staying in colder regions. The initial appearance can be sudden or slow growth of lesions occurs. In ayurveda, itching (Kandu in Sanskrit) assumed to be the result of Kapha dosha vitiation. Kapha is made up by earth and water fundamental elements. When Vata mixes in, the disease spreads over the body. The diagnosis is not difficult, experienced Vaidyas recognize it just by a single look. When psorioasis attacks the region in scalp. the patient suffers a lot. It appears like swellings of skin under the hair caused by dandruff. The reason for psoriasis are not difficult to give. Toxins in the blood developed as a result of stress can be main reason. It can restrict to local area or spread all across body. The treatment of psoriasis in ayurveda mainly consists of blood purification medicines. Such medicines include Panchtiktaghrut Guggal, Kanchnar Guggulu, Kaishor Guggulu, Mahamanjistadi Quath or Ghanavati, etc. Most Vaidyas prefer to give a mixture of blood purification herbs, depending on the patients constitution, lifestyle and pulse. The constipation and incompatible food items need to be tackled first. It is better if the treatment starts with whole body detox first through various Panchkarma routines, worked out specifically for individual. Local application of Panchtikta ghrut for relieving the itching helps for most patients. The discussion on the psychological issues, meditation possibilities to tackle the mental stress also need to be considered. The restriction on food become very important for this disease. Avoiding spicy items, sweets, dairy/bakery/soft floor items, pickles, chillies, fried items (farsan), sour items (lemon, amala excluded), nicotine, alcohol, incompatible food items, walking in strong sunlight are common restrictions for patients. Even though disease is only one, the choice of medicines can differ depending on individual. Even for one patient, it may be necessary to change the treatment approach depending on the progress or lack of it. Ayurvedic medicines generally will not cause any harmful side effects. Vaidya should use simple and mildest possible dose of medicines. The treatment time ranging from 6 to 18 months is common. The disease tests the patience of Vaidya as well as patient. As the itching gets reduced, it is safe to assume that the disease is getting under control. Use of Panchgavya medicine along with above medicines increases the speed of recovery due to better bioavailability caused by panchgavya medicines. However, this possibility is possible only in India. Itching is generally the result of toxins getting eliminated through skin. Skin works as second kidney. Liver eliminates toxins through kidney and skin, depending on the how deadly the toxins is. Whenever itching is noted, Vaidyas generally give blood purification herbs. Punarnava, Manjistha, Anantmul are leading herbs , though thitytwo herbs come under this class. About forty years ago, Vaidyas used to make tablets by boiling the herbal powders or the mixturesd with water, and rolling the tablets after powder turns into a paste by continuous boiling. Making tablets of proper consistency is an art. Only milk items permissible for people suffering from skin disorders can be skimmed buttermilk, skimmed milk boiled with a little turmeric. Few patients may be able to take sugarcane juice, orange juice, Musambi juice, but self experience will be best guide in this respect. Those who can not follow food restrictions are better advised to approach homeopaths, since homeopathy restrictions are milder. However, cleanliness in house, clothes, environment, reduced mental tension will aid the treatment significantly. Above statements are for educative purpose only. Self medication should not be tried, unless patient is ready to take responsibility for his actions. dr bhate ayurveda, Jay Dhruv <jaydhruv wrote: > > Looking for a cure for psoriasis for last 4 years. > If someone out there understands how it can be healed. > Request you to share it with me.
