=== Distribution of ''shotha'' and prognosis ===

~~kapha~~ dosha are typically found in upper body parts, pitta in middle body parts and vata in lower body parts. ~~Doshas~~ situated in amashaya (stomach) cause shotha in the upper body, those situated in pakwashaya (large bowel) cause shotha in the middle body and those situated in malashaya (rectum) cause shotha in the lower body parts, whereas more than one dosha leads to shotha in the whole body. [Su.Sa.Chikitsa Sthana 23/6]<ref name=Susruta/> Shotha in the middle body parts and generalized edema are difficult to cure. A shotha that has spread across half of the body is invariably fatal and a shotha that spreads upward from the lower parts (or from the top towards lower body parts) is incurable. [Su.Sa.Chikitsa Sthana 23/7-8]<ref name=Susruta/> Swellings of flanks, abdomen, throat and vital parts are incurable. Excessively bulky and rough swellings are also incurable. Swellings in children, old people and very weak patients are incurable (Ma.ni.-36/20). [16-17]
