Abstract
Ayurveda, an ancient system, offers in-depth insights into various skin disorders. It provides detailed understanding of causative factors and pathomechanisms, along with time-tested traditional treatments based on its principles. We report a 16-year chronic case of psoriasis (36-year-old male patient) with plaques and peeling erythrodermic skin rashes over the back and front of the trunk area and both legs. The scalp area and nail beds were also affected. The early involvement of joints was also noted. A two-year multimodal Ayurveda treatment has shown notable efficacy in managing chronic plaque and erythrodermic psoriasis, with no reported adverse events or side effects. The progressive events were documented in the form of photographs with the proper consent of the patient. The Ayurveda medicines, strict dietary regimen, and regular follow-ups together resulted in promising outcomes, revalidating the potential of Ayurveda in controlling psoriasis and its complications.
