4.Inverse psoriasis

Marked by smooth patches of red and inflamed skin.

5.Pustular psoriasis

Presents with pus-filled blisters appearing just hours after the skin becomes red and tender. It is associated with fever, chills, diarrhoea and itching.

6.Erythrodermic psoriasis

A least common type of psoriasis.

Here the entire body is covered with a red, peeling rash that can itch or burn intensely.

7.Psoriatic Arthritis

In addition to a presentation on the skin, it causes swollen, painful joints.

Is Psoriasis contagious? or Infective?

 

  • No, it is not contagious. It does not spread from person to person due to the skin to skin contact.
  • Touching a person with the disease does not transmit the disease.

Diagnosis of Psoriasis

  • Psoriasis is diagnosed by physical examination of the skin, medical history and relevant family health history.
  • Lab tests like microscopic examination of skin tissues from the skin biopsy are done sometimes.

Psoriasis in Ayurveda

Skin diseases are generally included in Kushta in Ayurveda.

There are eighteen types of kushta are described in Ayurveda. 

7 among them are called mahakushta and 11 are called rudrakushta. . Psoriasis is correlated to Sidhmakushta.

It occurs due to an imbalance of two doshas- Vata and Kapha.

Due to various causes, Vata and Kapha get vitiated and cause accumulation of toxins, these toxins get accumulated in deep tissues like rasa (plasma), rakta (blood), mamsa (muscle), lasika (lymph).

These toxins cause contamination of deeper tissues leading to psoriasis.

 

Our Ayurvedic Treatment Package for Psoriasis in Kerala

To treat Psoriasis it requires a minimum of 21 days treatment. We provide result-oriented treatment for psoriasis in our Trivandrum centre. 

Primary aims of our psoriasis treatments are as follows 

  • Purification of blood and tissues is the primary aim of Ayurvedic treatment.
  • Toxins are cleansed from the body and the digestion restored to prevent further accumulation.
  • Nourishing herbs are then administered to strengthen and tone the tissues to promote complete healing of the skin.
  • Purification of toxins is done mainly by Vamana procedure which is preceded by required snehapana using medicated ghee.
  • Takradhara is also a treatment choice as it relieves stress to a great extent. Its cooling property relieves stress and diseases like psoriasis have a very great psychological influence on patient leading to mental trauma. So treatments are intended to reduce stress.
  • External applications cannot solely rely on and it is applied only after the treatment is done internally.
  • Diet and regimen are equally important as medicines in case of psoriasis as chances of recurrence are high.
