Diagnosed Icthyosis. Heard That Ayurvedic Medicine Works. Will This Work?
Hello sir,
My 3.5 years old daughter have been dignosed Icthyosis. I read lots of about icthyosis and every where i found that it is non curable and only managable. But one of my friend is Ayurvedic Doctor who told me that he can 100% cure this disease. I spoke to one of his patient's father who is also 3.5 years old and suffering due to Icthyosis. He told me that 70 % disease get cure in just 3 months. I did not belive and so i personally went their home to see her and i found that she was really progressing. I want to ask you is it really possible.?

Hello,
Since most cases of ichthyosis have a genetic basis and so it generally lasts lifelong.With continued treatment and good advice about skin care,ichthyosis is usually very manageable.There are some forms of ichthyosis which may improve after childhood.
The only treatment which the modern science offers is by restoring skin moisture and facilitating more aggressive shedding of dead skin cells.
Since allopathy has nothing more to offer except moisture retaining creams,there is no harm in trying Ayurvedic treatment.
Thanks

1. please mention about the climate,clothing and is too much exposure to sun is there?
2. Ayurveda drugs which acts as Immunomodulators (improving immune status) are useful in these conditions.
3. skin and nervous system has a common embryological origin,thus it is a Psychosomatic problem,thus tranquility of mind is important,thus Medhya drugs like Brahmi,Tagar,Jatamansi,suvarn parpati,abhrak bhasam are given
4. because it is a chronic condition thus long term therapy is required.
5. In Ayurveda we consider such condition under "Ek Kushth" thus treatment protocol will be:

arogya vardhini vati 500mg
panchnimba churan 500mg
guduchi satva 500mg with cow ghee,twice a day.
