Brief summary (registry, in English)

Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory skin disease that is associated with substantial impairment of physical and psychological quality of life. The conventional treatment protocols manages the condition but with remissions and relapses which create anxiety in patients. Many of the patients withdraw from active social life as the disease attains chronicity. Several studies are pointing towards a conjoint management strategy incorporating the traditional and alternate medical systems. In this regard, Ayurveda is commonly used by psoriatic patients in India. Considering this fact it is high time to conduct a study to scientifically evaluate the efficacy of Ayurvedic treatment protocol in managing psoriasis as well as its potential to improve the quality of life.
