This can cause redness, itching, and even blisters on the affected area. Common allergens include nickel, fragrances, dyes, and certain plant materials.

1. Massage: Ayurvedic massage with herbal oils can help to soothe the skin and reduce inflammation.

1. Diet: An Ayurvedic diet can be used to reduce inflammation and balance the doshas. This may involve avoiding certain foods that are thought to aggravate the condition, such as spicy or fried foods.
