Effectively Heal Pityriasis Lichenoides Chronica (PLC)

Why EliteAyurveda

How are we able to Treat Pityriasis Lichenoides Chronica (PLC)

Pityriasis Lichenoides Chronica (PLC) is a rare skin disorder characterized by small, scaling papules that can persist for months to years. According to Ayurveda, this condition is due to an imbalance in the body's doshas, particularly Pitta and Kapha, and the presence of toxins (Ama) that hinder the natural healing process.

Pityriasis lichenoides (PL) is a skin disorder identified by tiny, elevated pink patches that aggregate in clusters. It is not a contagious disease. Pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta (PLEVA) is an acute form of the disease, whereas pityriasis lichenoides chronica (PLC)is a milder, longer-lasting version.

In Ayurveda, the major reason for Pityriasis Lichenoides Chronica (PLC) is believed to be the result of improper metabolism. As a result, poor nutrition, a sedentary lifestyle, stress, or anything else that disrupts the metabolism is the major cause of skin problems. This leads to aggravation of Pitta Dosha in the body and the body's ability to resist infections, allergies, and other environmental stimuli is damaged by improper metabolism. Because the skin is an excretory organ, toxins build-up in the peripheral tissues and manifests as eruptions. In a nutshell, poor metabolism, inappropriate waste removal, and toxin build-up are the primary causes, with external influences increasing the effect.

Acharya Charaka in Charaka Samhita, Chikitsa Sthana, 7/30, mentions:

"Kushta" - A term for various skin diseases caused by the vitiation of Vata, Pitta, and Kapha doshas, leading to conditions characterized by scaling and discoloration.

This shloka explains that conditions like PLC are related to dosha imbalances and can be managed by pacifying these doshas.

Root Cause Treatment

“The ayurvedic approach of disease looks for the root cause and not merely the symptoms. The basic principles of Ayurveda consider an individual human a specific identity and hence his treatment giving importance to the treatment of the patient rather than the treatment of the disease.”

Wisdom of Ayurveda

“Since Ayurveda focuses on the root-cause of the disease, it effectively reduces the risk of severe health complications arising out of the untreated underlying cause. Patients who complete their Ayurveda treatment have a reduced risk of health complications later.”

Ayurveda views PLC as a result of imbalances in the Pitta and Kapha doshas, leading to inflammation and accumulation of toxins in the skin. It is considered a condition that requires a holistic approach to treatment, including diet, lifestyle changes, detoxification, and herbal remedies to restore balance and promote healing.

Diet plays a crucial role in managing PLC according to Ayurveda. A Pitta and Kapha pacifying diet is recommended, which includes cooling, detoxifying, and fresh foods. Foods that are spicy, oily, processed, or acidic should be avoided. Including anti-inflammatory and detoxifying foods such as turmeric, ginger, and leafy greens can also be beneficial.

Panchakarma is a set of detoxification therapies in Ayurveda that help cleanse the body of toxins (Ama). In the context of PLC, Panchakarma helps in balancing the doshas, reducing inflammation, and promoting overall health. Treatments such as Vamana (therapeutic vomiting), Virechana (purgation), and Basti (enema) are commonly used to detoxify and rejuvenate the body.

Ayurveda recommends several lifestyle changes for managing PLC, including maintaining a regular routine, practicing yoga and meditation to manage stress, avoiding exposure to extreme temperatures, and keeping the skin clean and moisturized. Regular oil massages with medicated oils such as Neem oil or Coconut oil can also help in soothing the skin and reducing symptoms.

Ayurveda addresses the root cause of PLC by focusing on balancing the doshas, detoxifying the body, and restoring the natural functions of the skin and immune system. This involves a combination of personalized diet plans, lifestyle modifications, herbal remedies, and Panchakarma therapies to cleanse the body of toxins and promote healing at a deeper level.

Several Ayurvedic herbs are effective in managing PLC, including Neem (Azadirachta indica) for its detoxifying and anti-inflammatory properties, Turmeric (Curcuma longa) for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, Manjishtha (Rubia cordifolia) for its blood-purifying and anti-inflammatory properties, and Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia) for its immune-modulating and detoxifying effects. These herbs help in reducing inflammation, detoxifying the body, and promoting skin health.

While PLC can be managed effectively with Ayurveda, achieving complete cure depends on various factors such as the individual's constitution, severity of the condition, and adherence to treatment protocols. Consistent treatment, lifestyle modifications, and dietary changes can lead to significant improvements and long-term relief.

Ayurveda places significant importance on the mind-body connection in managing health conditions, including PLC. Stress and emotional imbalances can exacerbate symptoms. Ayurveda recommends practices such as yoga, meditation, and pranayama to manage stress and improve mental well-being, which in turn helps in managing PLC more effectively.

Ayurvedic treatment for PLC offers several benefits compared to conventional treatments. Ayurveda focuses on the root cause of the condition, providing holistic care that includes diet, lifestyle, and herbal remedies. It avoids synthetic chemicals, reducing the risk of side effects. Ayurvedic treatments aim for long-term relief and prevention of recurrence, promoting overall well-being rather than just symptom management.

Maintaining the benefits of Ayurvedic treatment for PLC in the long term involves following the prescribed diet and lifestyle recommendations, practicing stress management techniques such as yoga and meditation, and continuing the use of any supportive herbal formulations. Regular follow-ups with the Ayurvedic practitioner to monitor health and make necessary adjustments to the treatment plan are also important.
