What is Psoriasis?

Psoriasis disorder affects about 2–3% of the Indian population. The condition most typically affects people between the ages of 20 and 40. A considerable number of psoriasis patients (approximately 8.7%) develop Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA), with 74% of these instances being newly diagnosed. Psoriasis can cause joint difficulties, such as PsA, so early diagnosis and care are important.

Psoriasis Causes

  • Immune System Dysfunction – Overactive immune response triggers skin cell buildup.
  • Genetics – Family history increases the risk of psoriasis.
  • Stress – High stress levels can worsen flare-ups.
  • Infections – Bacterial or viral infections may trigger psoriasis.
  • Skin Injuries – Cuts, burns, or insect bites can cause flare-ups.
  • Weather Changes – Cold, dry weather can aggravate symptoms.
  • Certain Medications – Beta-blockers and NSAIDs may trigger psoriasis.

Psoriasis Symptoms

  • Red Patches – Inflamed, scaly skin with redness.
  • Itching & Burning – Persistent irritation and discomfort.
  • Silvery Scales – Thick, flaky skin buildup.
  • Dry & Cracked Skin – May bleed or feel sore.
  • Thickened Nails – Nails become ridged or discolored.
  • Joint Pain – In some cases, leads to psoriatic arthritis.
  • Flare-ups – Symptoms worsen due to stress, infections, or weather changes.

Psoriasis Treatment in Ayurveda

In Ayurveda, psoriasis is associated with an imbalance of the Pitta dosha, which is responsible for heat and metabolism in the body. When Pitta becomes inflamed, it causes excessive heat, inflammation, and skin conditions such as psoriasis. Toxins (Ama) and poor digestion also increase the problem.

Ayurveda resolves psoriasis by balancing the Pitta dosha and addressing underlying causes such as pollutants and poor digestion. Key therapies include:

  • Herbal Remedies: Ayurvedic medicines such as Neem, Turmeric, Aloe Vera, and Manjistha helps to control psoriasis by lowering inflammation, cleansing the body, and promoting skin healing. Guduchi and Karanja reduce inflammation, while Triphala promotes digestion and prevents flare-ups.
  • Panchakarma Therapy: Panchakarma treatments for psoriasis include Vamana (therapeutic vomiting) to eliminate toxins, Virechana (purgation therapy) to purify the blood, Abhyanga (herbal oil massage) to nourish the skin, and Raktamokshana (bloodletting therapy) to detoxify the blood. These methods serve to balance doshas, reduce pain, and promote skin healing.
  • Dietary Adjustments: A Pitta-calming diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables aids in inflammation management.
  • Stress Management: Practices such as yoga, meditation, and pranayama alleviate stress, which can lead to breakouts.
  • External Treatments: Herbal oils and pastes help to soothe and repair the skin.
