Immune response of a human body to the uncertain factors leads to the accelerated inflammatory proliferation of the ailing cells of the skin known as Psoriasis. Although the condition found described many decades ago, the etiology and treatment look under-researched. In Ayurveda, many herbs have proven efficacy in psoriasis, but the multifaceted etiology of the disease needs a multimodal treatment approach. We report about Ayurveda treatment in a 68-year-old female patient with plaque psoriasis presented with erythematous plaques on the anterior surface of the legs, right forehand, and neck region. The Auspitz sign and Koebner phenomenon were positive. The treatment protocol was adopted as per Ayurvedic samprapti (pathophysiology) and the patient cured completely without reporting any adverse events after the one year of treatment. No recurrence observed even after one year of the halted treatment. The importance of a wholesome diet as a health promoter is also revalidated. Photographic documentation was recorded with the proper consent of the patient during successive treatment and regular follow-ups. Altogether, multimodal Ayurveda treatment led to speedy and substantial recovery from a chronic case of psoriasis.
人体对不确定因素的免疫反应会导致患有一种名为银屑病的皮肤病的细胞加速炎症性增殖。尽管这种病症在几十年前就已被发现并描述，但病因和治疗方法仍研究不足。在阿育吠陀医学中，许多草药已被证明对银屑病有效，但该疾病多方面的病因需要采取多模式治疗方法。我们报告了一名68岁女性斑块状银屑病患者的阿育吠陀医学治疗情况，该患者的腿部前侧、右前臂和颈部出现红斑斑块。奥氏征和同形反应呈阳性。治疗方案是根据阿育吠陀医学的病理生理过程制定的，经过一年的治疗，患者完全治愈，未报告任何不良事件。即使在停止治疗一年后也未观察到复发情况。有益健康的饮食作为健康促进因素的重要性也得到了再次验证。在连续治疗和定期随访期间，经患者适当同意后进行了照片记录。总之，多模式阿育吠陀医学治疗使一名慢性银屑病患者迅速且显著康复。
