Introduction
Molluscum contagiosum is a viral skin infection that can cause long lasting discomfort, itching, and emotional stress due to visible skin lesions. Although it is more common in children, adults may also experience persistent and recurrent cases, especially when immunity and digestion are weak. Ayurveda explains such skin disorders as manifestations of internal imbalance rather than only surface level issues. This case study presents how a holistic Ayurvedic approach helped a young woman achieve complete recovery after struggling for more than a year.
Case Overview
The patient was a 20 year old female, who had been suffering from Molluscum contagiosum for about one and a half years. She experienced multiple raised lesions on her thighs and inner buttocks along with severe itching and irritation. Conventional treatments failed to provide lasting relief, and the condition kept recurring. She also reported digestive complaints such as bloating and acidity, indicating poor gut health. Seeking a root cause based solution, she consulted IAFA, where her condition was correlated with Ajagallika as described in Ayurveda, caused by Kapha and Vata imbalance along with reduced digestive fire.
Treatment and Results
The treatment protocol designed under the guidance of Dr. Sahil Gupta included both external and internal Ayurvedic therapies. Herbal cleansing and topical applications were advised to heal the lesions gently without scarring, while internal medicines focused on improving digestion, detoxifying the body, and enhancing immunity. Dietary regulations and lifestyle modifications were also strictly followed. Within the first month, itching reduced significantly and lesions began to subside. Over successive follow ups, more than 80 percent improvement was observed. The patient continued treatment for eight months and achieved complete recovery with no recurrence.
