Using classical Panchakarma therapies like Virechana, Raktamokshana, and Takradhara, our Ayurvedic doctors in Wagholi and Kharadi help you achieve calm, clear skin without long-term dependency on steroid creams.
Understanding the Condition
What is Eczema?
Eczema, medically referred to as dermatitis, is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that affects millions of people across every age group — from infants developing their first rash to adults dealing with decades-long flare-ups. It is characterised by persistent itching, redness, dryness, and irritation of the skin, and in more advanced stages, oozing, crusting, or thickened, leathery patches. Because the itching is often relentless, eczema frequently disrupts sleep, and the visible changes to the skin can affect confidence and emotional wellbeing. Even ordinary routines — choosing what to wear, bathing, or working outdoors in Pune's heat and dust — can become genuinely difficult for someone living with active eczema.
In Ayurveda, eczema is understood far more holistically than "a skin problem." It is correlated with Vicharchika, a condition described under the broader category of Kshudra Kushtha (minor skin disorders) in classical texts. Vicharchika is classically described as a Tridoshaja condition — meaning all three doshas can be involved — but it is predominantly driven by aggravated Kapha and Pitta dosha, along with impurity of Rakta (blood tissue). Kapha contributes oozing, itching, and thickening of the skin; Pitta contributes redness, burning, and inflammation; while in chronic, long-standing cases, Vata dosha takes over and causes dryness, roughness, and painful cracking of the affected skin. Ayurveda also identifies the accumulation of Ama (undigested metabolic toxins), triggered by poor digestion, an incompatible diet, and unmanaged stress, as a key internal factor that keeps eczema recurring even after external symptoms appear to settle.
This is why Ayurvedic management of eczema goes beyond a cream applied to the skin. It treats the skin (Twak), blood (Rakta), and lymphatic tissue (Lasika) together as an interconnected system, using internal detoxification, blood purification, and external therapies in combination. If you are searching for a trusted Ayurvedic doctor for eczema in Pune, our team at Ayusanjivani Ayurveda Centre — with clinics in Wagholi and Kharadi — offers a complete diagnostic and treatment protocol combining Panchakarma, herbal medicines, and diet and lifestyle correction to control flare-ups and support long-term skin health.

Understanding Your Skin
Types of Eczema We Treat
Eczema isn't one single condition — it shows up differently depending on location, trigger, and underlying dosha pattern. Identifying the exact type is the first step our Ayurvedic doctors take before recommending a therapy.
Atopic Eczema
Also called Atopic Dermatitis, this is the most common form and often runs in families with a history of allergies or asthma. It typically causes red, intensely itchy rashes on the face, neck, elbow creases, and behind the knees, and tends to flare and settle in cycles.
Contact Eczema
Contact Dermatitis develops when the skin reacts to an irritant or allergen it has touched. Soaps, detergents, certain metals, and cosmetic products are common triggers, leading to localized redness, itching, and sometimes blistering at the contact site. Related patterns are covered on our Dermatitis treatment page.
Dyshidrotic Eczema
This type specifically affects the palms of the hands and soles of the feet, presenting as small, intensely itchy fluid-filled blisters. It is frequently linked to stress, sweating, and seasonal humidity changes common in Pune's monsoon months.
Nummular Eczema
Characterised by distinct, round, coin-shaped patches of irritated, scaly skin, this type is often triggered by dry skin, cold weather, or minor skin injuries, and can be mistaken for a fungal infection without proper evaluation.
Seborrheic Eczema
Seborrheic Dermatitis mainly affects the scalp — where it is commonly recognised as stubborn dandruff — but can also appear on the face, eyebrows, and chest, areas naturally rich in oil glands. It tends to flare with stress and hormonal shifts.
Stasis Eczema
Stasis Dermatitis is linked to poor venous circulation, most often in the lower legs. It causes swelling, itching, and brownish skin discoloration, and is more common in individuals who stand for long hours or have varicose veins.
Neurodermatitis
Also known as Lichen Simplex Chronicus, this form develops from a persistent itch-scratch cycle confined to one or two areas of skin, gradually resulting in thickened, leathery, darkened patches that can be difficult to break without a structured plan.
Ayurvedic Perspective
How the Three Doshas Influence Eczema (Vicharchika)
Ayurveda classifies Vicharchika by the doshic pattern behind it. Correctly identifying whether Kapha, Pitta, or Vata is dominant helps our doctors choose the right combination of internal and external therapies for you.
Kapha-Dominant Eczema
Presents with itching, oozing, and thickening of the skin, along with a heavy, sluggish quality. Lesions may feel moist and cool to the touch, and this pattern often worsens in humid weather or after consuming heavy, oily, or dairy-rich foods. It responds well to purification therapies that clear excess Kapha and Ama.
Pitta-Dominant Eczema
Marked by redness, burning, warmth, and acute inflammation — this is the pattern most often seen in contact eczema and active flare-ups. Spicy, fermented, sour, and heat-producing foods tend to aggravate it further. Cooling, blood-purifying therapies bring the fastest relief in this presentation.
Vata-Dominant Eczema
Seen in long-standing, chronic cases — the skin becomes dry, rough, cracked, and painfully thickened, as in neurodermatitis and nummular eczema. Cold, dry weather and irregular routine worsen this pattern, and it responds best to nourishing, oil-based therapies once acute inflammation is controlled.
⚠️ Important: If your skin shows signs of infection — spreading redness, pus, fever, or rapidly worsening blistering — please seek an urgent medical evaluation before starting any Ayurvedic therapy. Our doctors will guide you on the right course of action during your consultation.
Root Causes
Common Causes of Eczema
Understanding what triggered your eczema helps our Ayurvedic doctors design a treatment plan that addresses the actual cause, not just the visible rash.
A family history of eczema, allergies, or asthma significantly raises the likelihood of developing atopic eczema.
Sensitivities to pollen, dust mites, pet dander, or specific foods frequently trigger eczema flare-ups.
Dry, low-humidity air, extreme heat or cold, and exposure to pollution or harsh chemicals worsen the condition.
A weakened protective skin barrier allows irritants to penetrate more easily, increasing sensitivity and inflammation.
An overactive immune response may mistake harmless substances as threats, triggering unnecessary inflammation in the skin.
High stress levels aggravate Pitta and Vata dosha, frequently triggering or worsening eczema flare-ups.
Incompatible food combinations and poor digestion generate Ama (toxins) that circulate in the blood and surface as skin eruptions.
Strong detergents, synthetic fabrics, and chemical-laden skincare products strip natural oils and irritate sensitive skin.
Recognise the Signs
Symptoms of Eczema to Watch For
Eczema can present differently depending on the type and the dominant dosha involved. Recognising these symptoms early allows our doctors to intervene before the condition becomes chronic.
Persistent, often unbearable itching that tends to worsen at night and disturbs sleep and daily focus.
Visible redness and warmth over affected patches, especially prominent during acute, Pitta-dominant flares.
Rough, flaky, or scaly areas of skin that may feel tight, especially common in chronic Vata-type eczema.
Fluid discharge from active lesions that dries into a crust — a hallmark of Kapha-dominant, acute eczema.
Repeated scratching over time causes the skin to thicken and darken, seen typically in neurodermatitis.
Tiny, intensely itchy blisters on the palms or soles, characteristic of dyshidrotic eczema.
Deep dryness can cause the skin to crack painfully, occasionally leading to minor bleeding in severe cases.
Night-time itching frequently interrupts sleep, contributing to fatigue, irritability, and stress that further aggravates the skin.
If your symptoms match any of the above, an early consultation with an Ayurvedic doctor for eczema in Pune can prevent occasional flare-ups from progressing into chronic, thickened Vicharchika. Our doctors at Wagholi & Kharadi will examine your skin, digestion, and pulse (Nadi Pariksha) to build your personalised treatment plan.

Our Treatment Protocol
Ayurvedic & Panchakarma Treatments for Eczema
Our doctors combine one or more of the following classical therapies based on your dosha type, the stage of your eczema (acute or chronic), and its severity.
A supervised medicated purgation therapy that eliminates excess Pitta and deep-seated toxins (Ama) from the blood and gut — considered the single most important Panchakarma for chronic skin disorders like eczema. Learn about Virechana →
Controlled bloodletting or leech therapy used to purify Rakta (blood tissue), rapidly reducing itching, redness, and inflammation in stubborn, recurrent eczema patches. Learn about Raktamokshana →
A continuous stream of medicated buttermilk poured gently over the affected skin or scalp — deeply cooling and soothing for burning, redness, and Pitta-driven inflammation.
A medicated herbal paste applied directly over active lesions to draw out heat, dry up oozing patches, and calm localized Kapha-Pitta inflammation.
A herbal decoction skin wash used to gently cleanse affected areas, reduce microbial load, and prepare the skin for absorption of medicated pastes and oils.
Used in chronic, Vata-dominant eczema with dryness and cracking, Basti nourishes deep tissues and corrects the underlying dosha imbalance from within. Learn about Basti →
Gentle, medicated oil massage recommended once oozing has settled — it nourishes dry, cracked skin and restores the natural barrier in chronic-stage eczema.
Nasal administration of medicated oils supports cases of eczema linked with respiratory allergies, sinus congestion, or an atopic constitution. Learn about Nasya →
A stream of warm medicated oil poured over the forehead to calm the nervous system — particularly valuable when stress and anxiety are driving repeated flare-ups.
Blood-purifying internal formulations built around herbs like Khadira, Manjistha, and Neem, prescribed to clear circulating toxins that keep resurfacing as skin eruptions.
For deep-seated or recurrent eczema, our doctors design a full, sequenced Panchakarma protocol rather than a single isolated therapy. Explore Panchakarma Therapies →
A structured Kapha-Pitta pacifying diet plan that reduces Ama formation at the source, supporting every external therapy and reducing relapse.
Alongside these Panchakarma therapies, our Ayurvedic doctor for eczema in Pune will prescribe internal medicines built around blood-purifying and Kapha-Pitta pacifying herbs, and guide you on diet, sleep, and stress management — a complete protocol designed for lasting skin health, not just temporary suppression of symptoms.
