Ayurveda and Eczema

According to Ayurveda, eczema or vicharchika can be primarily attributed to a poor diet and lifestyle which impairs digestion and aggravates Pitta dosha (biohumor representing Fire and Water). Pitta shows up in the skin as blisters and breakouts due to the accumulation of internally heating toxins called ama.

When these toxins enter the deeper layers of the bodily tissues they contaminate them to cause this condition.

However, eczema may also be caused due to an imbalance of the other doshas. Here is a look at the different manifestations of the condition based on the dosha that is aggravated.

Vata dosha: This eczema is characterized by extreme dryness, scaling, itching and lots of pain and throbbing.

Pitta dosha: Pitta-type eczema shows up as red, blistery, bleeding, burning sensation and infections.

Kapha dosha: Kaphic eczema itches, oozes and causes thickening of the skin. Kapha individuals may be prone to seborrheic eczema, especially in between rolls of fats as well as other moist sweaty areas.

Tridoshic eczema may show symptoms of all three types of eczema. This is commonly seen in most chronic cases.
