I’m a 42-year-old female experiencing frequent hives and itching for the past 6 months, with no significant relief from conventional treatments. My mother has a history of skin allergies. How can Ayurveda address my condition and is family history crucial?
Ayurveda addresses skin allergies by understanding individual constitutions and possible familial predispositions. Your family history of skin allergies might guide the Ayurvedic approach. Recommendations may include dietary modifications, internal herbal remedies like Haridra granules (Turmeric granules) and external applications to alleviate itching and hives. I suggest Virechan type of Panchkarma treatment to detoxify the body and rebalance doshas. You can also take Caster oil or soft gelatin tablets of Caster oil which will clear your Gut and balances Agni (Digestive fire). Ultimately this will improve your overall health. However detailed history will be required to plan a proper treatment.
