This case report presents the management of psoriasis in a 64-year-old female patient using Ayurvedic principles. The patient presented with multiple well-defined erythematous, mild violaceous plaques with scaling over her fingers, elbow, back, abdomen, buttock, and lower limbs. She had previously tried various conventional treatments without satisfactory results. After a thorough Ayurvedic assessment, a customized treatment plan was formulated based on the patient's Prakriti and Vikriti. The treatment regimen included a combination of Ayurvedic formulations, dietary modifications, and lifestyle interventions. Notable improvements were observed in the patient's signs and symptoms, including a reduction in plaque severity, scaling, and itching, along with an improvement in overall quality of life. The severity of psoriasis was thoroughly evaluated through photographic documentation, providing a comprehensive assessment of the efficacy of Ayurvedic intervention. This case highlights the potential of Ayurveda as an effective and safe therapeutic choice for the management of psoriasis, offering holistic healing while addressing the underlying imbalances.
