SAMPRAAPTI OF UDARA ROGA – CHIKITSAA STHAANA 13/9-11

AGNIMAANDYA + MALINA BHOJAN results in ---- indigestion --- accumulation of MALAS (including MALA ROOPA DOSHAS and excrements stool, urine and sweat) --- alteration in the functions of PRAANA, AGNI AND APAANA --- swelling in the skin and muscles of the abdomen – which has the character of ADHMAAPANA. 

COMMENTRY – The meaning of AGNIDOSHA here is the AGNIMAANDYA. In this way the causation of three DOSHAS in causing the UDARA ROGA has been said – like it is said in SUTRA STHAAN 6 – in the rainy season due to the decrease in AGNI there is aggravation of all PAWAN AADI DOSHAS.

MALAA here means VAATAADI and PUREESHAADI. MALINAIH ITI means DOSHA increasing VIRUDHA AHAAR AADI. 

Although the MANDAGNI and the MALINAIH both are said the cause of UDARA ROGA, but both these collectively cause an increased disease condition, so to denote the increased condition the word SANCHAYA has been used. 

This PRAANA AADI again causes the deformity in the AGNI to cause MANDAGNI, and this again produces more DOSHAS which again decreases the AGNI. 

The vitiation of the PRAANA AND APAANA by the MALAROOPA VAATA is not a wrong statement because VAAYU itself can cause the vitiation of the VAAYU. 

TVAKAMAANSANTARAMA means in between the skin and the muscles.
