Understanding the Root Cause in Ayurveda
Unlike modern dermatology which primarily treats the skin surface with topical corticosteroids, classical Ayurveda views Psoriasis (Eka Kushtha) as a systemic blood and metabolic disorder (Rakta-Dushti). When toxic waste products (Ama) accumulate due to weak digestion (Mandaagni), they irritate the Kapha and Vata doshas, manifesting as dry, flaking plaques.
1. Wrightia Tinctoria (Danthapala)
Extensively proven in classical texts and modern pharmacological trials to regulate excessive keratinocyte proliferation.
2. Neem (Azadirachta Indica)
The premier cooling bitter herb that pacifies inflammatory Pitta and purifies toxic blood.
3. Manjistha (Rubia Cordifolia)
Supports lymphatic drainage and accelerates micro-vascular tissue repair.
Conclusion
Long-term relief requires a disciplined combination of internal blood purifiers, external herbal oils, and an anti-inflammatory diet.
