Ayurvedic Eczema Treatment in Amritsar

In Ayurvedic literature, eczema is classed as Vicharchika - a skin disorder originating from internal imbalance rather than a superficial condition. It falls under Kushtha (skin problems), arising from a combination of irregular Pitta (heat and inflammation), Kapha (moisture and density), and Vata (dryness and irregular movement).

Treatment at Dr. Abrol Ayurveda & Panchakarma Hospital doesn't hide symptoms - it treats the internal fire making them worse. No two people's skin is exactly the same, so treatment is tailored to each person's Prakriti (body constitution) and Vikriti (present imbalance).

Our Treatment Approach

How We Treat Eczema

Panchakarma Detoxification

Virechana (medicated therapeutic purgation) purifies and eliminates Pitta through the blood; Vamana (therapeutic emesis) removes Kapha congestion for oozing, weeping eczema; Raktamokshana (therapeutic bloodletting) cleanses the Rakta Dhatu (blood tissue) in chronic cases; Abhyanga & Swedana (herbal oil massage and medicated steam) mobilise toxins to the skin surface.

Herbal Medicines

Neem (blood purifier with antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties), Manjistha (a leading Rakta Shodhaka/blood purifier), Turmeric (curcumin supports regenerating skin), Khadira and Guggulu (effective for long-standing weeping eczema), and Rasayana formulations (Guduchi, Amalaki, Chyawanprash) to rejuvenate and balance immunity.

Topical & External Therapies

Lepa (medicated herbal pastes of neem, turmeric, lodhra, sandalwood), Tailya application (Eladi Taila, Mahamarichadi Taila, medicated coconut oil), and Takradhara (medicated buttermilk stream therapy) for cooling, anti-inflammatory relief.

Diet & Lifestyle

Cooling, water-rich vegetables (cucumber, bottle gourd, ash gourd, leafy greens), whole grains, and ghee in moderation; avoiding excess bitter/sour/fermented foods and nightshades during flare-ups; daily yoga, pranayama, and meditation to reduce stress.
