Treatment for psoriasis works primarily by reducing inflammation. Ayurvedic treatment for psoriasis includes snehana which includes intake of medicated ghee etc and shodhana which is purificatory therapies. This reduces the production of new cells and thereby reduces itching. Topical treatment includes application of paste which aims at removing the scales and preventing the regrowth and also helps in fading the blemishes. Oral medications include decoctions, arishta etc which are beneficial for the skin. Physiotherapy is also recommended since many can develop psoriatic arthritis in future.
