About Dr. Abrol

Dermatitis is a common inflammatory skin condition that causes redness, itching, dryness, irritation, and sometimes swelling or blistering of the skin. It can be triggered by allergies, environmental factors, stress, digestive imbalance, or a weakened immune response.

While conventional treatments often focus on suppressing symptoms temporarily, Ayurveda views dermatitis as a result of internal dosha imbalance - primarily Pitta and Kapha - along with toxin accumulation (Ama). Charaka and Sushruta group it under 'Kushta Roga', the family of skin diseases with 18 recognised types. At Dr. Abrol's clinic, the focus is on identifying the root cause and restoring balance through personalised herbal remedies, detoxification, and dietary guidance.

Our Treatment Approach

How We Treat Dermatitis

Ayurvedic Root Causes

Ama (undigested toxins) clogging the body's channels, Rakta Dushti (impure blood), Mandagni (weak digestive fire), and a Pitta-Kapha dosha imbalance driving inflammation.

Internal Herbal Medicines

Neem (purifies the blood, calms itching), Guduchi/Giloy (builds immunity), Manjistha (blood purifier that reduces dark spots and swelling), and Turmeric (natural anti-inflammatory that speeds healing).

External Therapies

Herbal pastes (Lepa) applied to reduce redness, burning, and itching; medicated oils massaged deep into cracking skin; herbal decoction washes in place of chemical soap.

Panchakarma Treatment

Virechana (purgation) to clear Pitta and toxins, Raktamokshana (bloodletting) to cleanse circulating impurities in chronic cases, and Abhyanga (full-body medicated oil massage) to nourish depleted skin.

Diet & Lifestyle

Fresh fruits, green leafy vegetables, moong dal, whole grains, warm water, and turmeric milk; avoiding hot/spicy/oily and processed foods, sugar, cold drinks, and curd at night. Consistent sleep by 10:30 pm, daily Surya Namaskar and pranayama, and gentle herbal skincare are recommended.
