Vd. Jignesh Thakkar:

According to ayurveda Pimples is vatkaf disease while people has wrong belief that it happens by usnata of body. See etiology of youvan pidika acc to modern

Teen age➡increased gonadotrophins➡increased sebum secretion from sebaceous glands➡full ness of glands➕infection ➡pimples….Means increased gonadotrophins level leads to pimples. According to ayurveda secondary sex characteristics are because of kafa.

‘Snehobandha sthiratvam cha gauravam vrushta balam,

Kshama dhruti alobhascha kapha karma avikarajam.’

Here vrushta (sexual power) is because Of kapha.  So gonadotrophins are kapha in ayurveda.

In gland excessive secretion is also snigdha. Again in madhav nidan youvan pidika is kapha-vatj vyadhi.

Here ruksha (opp of snigdha) is treatment.

One should avoid fermented food. Avoid Oil,ghee etc.

One should avoid applying cream but should apply ruksha face pack.

One should wash face again and again to remove oil.
