Brief Answer:
Psoriasis can be managed and well controlled in ayurveda.

Detailed Answer:
Hai,

Thanks for consulting us.

Psoriasis can be managed and well controlled in ayurveda.
some scientific proven treatment protocol are available in ayurvedic system of medicine.

as psoriasis is considered to be an auto immune disease in modern science and in ayurveda stress,anxiety, diet ,lifestyle are major influencing factor for psoriasis as well as any skin diseases.

so treating psoriasis in ayurveda is not like of taking oral medication and applying external oil. it includes food advise,oral medication,meditation,external application if needed panchakarma.( depends on the severity and duration of disease) .

In my practice, I noticed stress is the one of the major factor which aggravates the symptoms of psoriasis. Many patients gets completely healed and free from the disease for years together. But stress and anxiety which one triggers and get the disease back. So treating stress and anxiety is a major and important guideline in ayurveda.

Kindly provide me the details of your husband for proper advise and treatment;

How long your husband suffering from this disease?

What is his occupation/lifestyle/diet pattern?

Is he suffers from stress/anxiety?

Where are the lesions in the body? What type and pattern?

Any triggering factor did you ever noticed?

any other medical condition did he suffers and in past too?

Any comment you want post?

get back to me with the details
