About Psoriasis & Eczema

Kushta (Ekakushta · Sidhma · Kitibha)

18 types of Kushta

Sushruta enumerated 18 varieties of Kushta. The relevant ones for modern psoriasis are Ekakushta (single large patch type, plaque psoriasis), Sidhma (scaly thin patches, guttate psoriasis), and Kitibha (thick rough patches, chronic plaque). Eczema maps to Vicharchika. Each subtype has slightly different protocols.

Treatment approach

Treatment always begins with deep Shodhana — Vamana (therapeutic emesis) for Kapha-dominant types, Virechana for Pitta-dominant. Then external — Takra Dhara (medicated buttermilk pouring on the scalp for scalp psoriasis), Lepa (medicated paste), Snana with Triphala-decoction water. Internal Rasayanas for 3-6 months.

Classical formulations

Always prescribed and monitored by a verified BAMS doctor. Self-medication, particularly with Rasaushadhis (mineral preparations), can cause harm.

Important

Patient outcomes for Psoriasis & Eczema are highly individual. Patterns of dosha-imbalance, duration of disease, and existing co-morbidities determine the right protocol — which is why every plan on AyurConnect is doctor-prescribed, never self-administered.
