A CONCEPTUAL REVIEW OF VYANGA (MELASMA) DUE TO LIFESTYLE CHANGES
View through CrossRef
Melasma is a common skin problem in which brown to grey–brown patches usually appear on the face. The most common areas are cheeks, bridge of the nose, forehead, chin and above the upper lip.
It is caused due to the changing lifestyle, unhealthy dietary habits, sleep disturbances, systemic diseases, medi-cation and stressful life.
In the Ayurvedic classics, Vyanga is mentioned, described under Kshudraroga under Twak roga, which can be compared with melasma. As per the Ayurvedic classics, Vyanga is a condition where vata pitta dosha as well as Mansika nidana, such as krodha, shoka, and ayasa, are the main culprits.
In Ayurveda, several remedies are described for the treatment of this disease. The drugs for internal purposes and the drugs for external purposes with Raktaprasadak, Twakprasadaka, and Varnakarak properties are helpful in managing Vyanga, which, on the other hand, helps in rakta shodhan (blood purification).
