The Ayurvedic Concept of Eczema or Dermatitis

 

As per ayurvedic principles, eczema is essentially an aggravation of pitta dosha. Pitta mainly emanates from the skin and it heats up the toxin and creates ama. Ayurveda believes that it is these heated toxins which end up accumulating on the body tissues. Owing to this action, the toxins penetrate in a lot deeper level and leads to eczema.

 

The skin lotions, steroids and creams will only temporarily mask the symptoms and this is the reason eczema tends to appear all over again. Ayurveda believes that it permanently cures eczema, pitta must be pacified and to do so, you need to improve the digestive system of the body and cleanse and eradicate the presence of all toxins from your body.
