*A milder form of basti can get stagnated inside leading to complications of not eliminating doshas. This may result into ayoga or hīnayoga (insufficient action). On the contrary if a basti is stronger it may cause an atiyoga (action in excess) causing excessive evacuation of dosha along with body constituents. | |||
*Faulty application of bastis may cause a complication in the form of atisāra (diarrhea). | |||
*Atisāra (diarrhea) may be either acute with undigested material associated with āma or chronic without much undigested material/ pakwa. | |||
*Pakwa type of Atisara is again of 5 types as with shakrit (fecal matter), with vata (flatus), with asrik (blood), with pitta and with kapha. | |||
*Basic principle of treatment of every condition associated with āma is āmapāchana. Decoction / powder of mustā, ativiṣā, kuṣṭha, nata, dāru and vacā are ideal for amapachana. This recipe is useful in āmātisāra. | |||
*To manage pakvātisāra, medicines of two categories viz. vātaghna (anti-vāta) and grāhī (antidiarrheal by promoting digestion and absorption) are used. | |||
*Picchabasti and raktabasti are treatments for diarrhea with blood.These can be considered as stambhana (stop bleeding) and vishesha brimhana (enhance internal strength). | |||
*The treatment principles of various types of atisara due to complications of basti therapy: | |||
**Vāta: snigdha (unctuous) amla (sour) lavaṇa (salty) and madhura (sweet) liquids orally and warm bastis with same substances. | |||
**Pitta and rakta: cold bitter astringent and sweet subsances. | |||
**Kapha: bitter, hot, astringent and pungent subsances. | |||
**Śakṛt (stool): saṅgrāhi (checks atisāra through improving the digestion) and vātaghna (measures) | |||
**Āma: pāchana (measures digesting āma) | |||
**Rakta: picchābasti and raktabasti. | |||
