Apart from the worldwide
acceptance of Ayurveda, its pure
and classical form is restricted to
Kerala alone.
|
Ayurveda, the science of life uniquely deals with the proper
maintenance of health along with the preventive and curative
aspects of various diseases. Apart from the worldwide acceptance
of Ayurveda, its pure and classical form is restricted to Kerala
alone. |
| |
Ayurveda is based on the theory of Tridosha and Panchamahabhuta.
A balanced state of the three elements namely vata, pitha
and kapha is essential for normal body functions. Dietary factors,
lifestyle variations, stress, over medication, hereditary factors,
environmental pollution etc lead to vitiation of tridoshas. This in
turn affects the vital internal organs. |
| |
Skin is one of the most important organs of the body as it
protects the internal organs from environmental influences.
Various discolorations, thickening, itching, discharge, scales,
excessive sweating, hair fall, numbness, crusting etc are
symptoms produced in the skin due to homeostatic imbalance and
subsequent impaired functioning of internal organs. |
| |
Health of the skin is also affected by factors like nutrition,
hygiene, age, immunity, genetic factors and medications. Normal
colour, lustre and softness of skin are maintained by tridoshas and
hence the vitiation of tridoshas directly affects the beauty and
integrity of skin. The poshaka dhatus (nourishing elements) of the
body are Rasa and Rakta. Decreased nutrition affects the quality of
these elements leading to poor nourishment of further dhatus and
skin leading to diseases. Virudha ahara (incompatible diet) are
certain combinations of food articles which on long term use will
hamper digestive power causing aggravation and accumulation of
vitiated doshas in the blood – a definite cause of skin diseases. |
| |
| Eg: intake of fish and milk together. |
| |
Itching, whitish discolouration, thickening of skin etc denote
kapha. Burning sensation and redness show involvement of pitha
and pain, dryness, blackish discolouration etc are manifestations of
vata. The nature of discharge also is diagnostic of the involved
dosha. |
| |
|
|
Assessment of tridoshas from the clinical features, proper diagnosis
and appropriate management with quality assured ayurvedic
medicines can cure skin diseases. Padhya (modifications on diet
and habits) is an essential factor in the treatment of skin diseases
as it will help the medicines act faster more effectively. |
|
| |
|
| Psoriasis is a chronic non contagious disease characterised by
inflamed lesions with silvery white scabs of dead skin. It is consid |
|
ered as an autoimmune
disorder. Different types
of psoriasis can be
correlated with certain
types of skin diseases
described in ayurvedic
classics. As these
conditions vary in their
doshic involvement,
treatment also varies
accordingly. Hence the
protocol changes from
patient to patient. |

In Ayurveda Vitiligo is termed
as switra or kilasa. It is a non
infectious non exudative skin
affection. |
|
|
|
Vitiligo is an acquired disease having an auto immune aetiology in
which the melanocytes in localized areas of the body stop producing melanin.
In Ayurveda Vitiligo is termed as switra or kilasa. It is
a non infectious non exudative skin affection. It involves rakta,
mamsa and medo dhatu. This disease spreads fast and becomes incurable very quickly.
|
|
 |
Ayurveda insists on
early management of
this condition. The
affected skin will be dry
and light red in colour
in vata predominant
switra. Coppery red in
colour with burning
sensation & scanty
hairs in pitha, thick
white skin often with
itching in kapha.Ayurveda
offers effective treatment
forthese conditions.The
treatment is broadly
classifed into sodhana
& samana.Sodhana therapy or Pancha- karma chikitsa has a keyrole in
curing skin diseases as it purifies each and every tissues of the
body.
|
|
|
Samana treatment includes internal medicines and some
therapeutic procedures. The recurrence and complications of
these diseases are prevented by Rasayana treatment which
is a specialized branch of Ayurveda having proven
efficacy in the management of autoimmune disorders.
