<big>'''Abstract '''</big>
<p style="text-align:justify;">''Raktapitta'' is a treatable bleeding disorder, if recognized and managed in early stage. If diagnosis is missed and disease is not managed properly, it becomes life threatening (''mahagada'').It occurs because of excessive aggravation of ''[[pitta]]'' and its affliction with ''[[rakta]]''. Before initiation of treatment, it is important to assess strength of the patient because the treatment regimen is personified for well nourished and emaciated persons. Etiology, classification, prognosis and treatment of ''raktapitta'' have been described in detail. A good number of herbal and animal preparations are given. Further, this chapter enumerates aspects that are favorable or unfavorable to ''raktapitta''. To improve the efficacy of treatment, external beneficial measures, such as ''pradeha, parisheka, sheetasnana'' and habitat are described at the end of chapter. This bleeding disorder is not described in modern medicine writings and appears to be unknown to allopathic medicine.</p>

== Introduction ==
<div style="text-align:justify;">
''Raktapitta'' is a serious disease caused due to vitiation of ''[[rakta]]'' by aggravated ''[[pitta]]''. This chapter is placed after ''jwara'', because ''raktapitta'' can occur due to the increased heat in the body produced after ''jwara''. Prompt management is necessary for this dreadful disease. This disease develops due to ''[[pitta]]'' aggravation as a result of consumption of ''ushna, teekshna, agneya dravya'' and excessive exposure to sunlight.
Because of similarity in constitution of ''[[pitta]]'' with ''[[rakta]], [[rakta dhatu]]'' is also vitiated by the etiological factors and has similarity in its smell and color, and is therefore called ''raktapitta''.
''Raktapitta'' is a serious disease caused due to vitiation of ''rakta'' by aggravated ''pitta''. This chapter is placed after ''jwara'', because ''raktapitta'' can occur due to the increased heat in the body produced after ''jwara''. Prompt management is necessary for this dreadful disease. This disease develops due to ''pitta'' aggravation as a result of consumption of ''ushna, teekshna, agneya dravya'' and excessive exposure to sunlight.
It originates in the spleen and liver which play pivotal roles in the blood physiology, including clotting. Manifestations of ''raktapitta'' depend upon vitiation and predominance of a particular ''[[dosha]]''. There may be a combination of one, two or all the three ''[[dosha]]''. Based on ''[[dosha]]'' specific features, the blood of the patient of ''raktapitta'' may appear pale, unctuous and slimy in ''[[kapha]]'', frothy, blackish red in ''[[vata]]'' and cane sugar like cow urine, shiny black, smoky and coarse-like collerium in ''[[pitta]]''. ''Raktapitta'' associated with one ''[[dosha]]'' is curable, with two ''[[dosha]]'' is difficult to cure and incurable if all three ''[[dosha]]'' are involved.
Movement of ''raktapitta'' may be upward or downward meaning bleeding from upper and/or lower external orifices. This manifestation depends on etiological factors, unctuous hot factors associated with ''[[kapha]]'' has upward ''raktapitta'' however rough hot associated with ''[[vata]]'' has downward ''raktapitta''.
Upward ''raktapitta'', associated with ''[[kapha dosha]]'' is treated with ''tarpana'' (nourishment therapy) and downwards ''raktapitta'' is associated with ''[[vata]]'' and ''peya'' (liquid gruel) should be used.
Their drugs mainly have ''madhura, tikta'' and ''sheeta guna'' which pacify ''[[pitta]]'' and ''[[rakta]]''. One herb which is very important in ''raktapitta'' is ''vasa'', which alone can check the bleeding quickly.

Agnivesha bowed to Punarvasu Atreya who is devoid of confusion, having fire-like brilliance(sharp intellect) and self-control while he was making stroll in the ''panchaganga'' region, and said, “O Lord! the etiology along with symptoms of haemorrhagic disorders has already been said, now you may tell me the further points, O my teacher!

==== Pathogenesis ====
The physician knowing causes and symptoms should quickly manage the case of haemorrhagic disorders which is an acute dreadful disease, having more severity and quick-acting like fire. The etiology of the same has already been said earlier such as intake of hot, sharp, sour, pungent and salty substances in excess, exposure to the sun and foods that cause burning sensations. [5-6]

''[[Pitta]]'' aggravated by these causes vitiates ''[[rakta]]''. Due to similarity in constitution (of ''[[rakta]]'' and ''[[pitta]]''), the pathogenesis develops furthermore to vitiate ''[[rakta]]''. Due to heat of ''[[pitta]]'', the fluid portion from all the fomented ''[[dhatu]]s'' oozes out, which additionally leads to aggravation of ''[[rakta]]'' and ''[[pitta]]''. [7-8]

Viscous, pale, unctuous and slimy (in blood coming out) indicates affliction by ''[[kapha]]''. Blackish, reddish, frothy, thin and roughness in blood indicates affliction by ''[[vata]]''. That having ochre-like, black, cow-urine-like, shining black, smoky and collerium-like color indicates ''[[pitta]]'' affliction. Due to combination of two ''[[dosha]]s'' the symptoms of the concerned ones are combined. ''Raktapitta'' caused by ''sannipata'' has symptoms of all the three ''[[dosha]]s''. [11-12]

''Raktapitta'' associated with one ''[[dosha]]'' is curable; that with two ''[[dosha]]s'' is palliable while that caused by three ''[[dosha]]s'' is incurable. It is also incurable if it is severely forceful and invading the person who has poor digestion, is emaciated due to diseases, old and under-nourished. [13-14]

Movement of ''raktapitta'' is directed upwards and downwards, the former through seven orifices and the latter through two orifices. There are seven orifices in head and two below. That coming from upper passages is curable, the one coming downwards is palliable and that which comes both ways is incurable. When it flows out from all the orifices including the hair follicles it is known as with innumerable movements which is fatal.
''Raktapitta'' passing out excessively through both the passages, having corpselike smell, exceedingly red or black, associated with ''[[kapha]]'' and ''[[vata]]'', adhering in throat, having all the complications mentioned earlier, possessing deep yellow, blue, green or coppery color and is in emaciated and coughing patient is incurable.
That ''raktapitta'' is palliable which is associated with two ''[[dosha]]s'', which aggravates again and again after subsiding and shifts from one passage to another. [15-21]

''Raktapitta'' is caused by food having predominantly unctuous-hot and rough-hot properties. The former often gives rise to the upward movement and the latter to the downward movement of ''raktapitta''. The upward movement in ''raktapitta'' is associated with ''[[kapha]]'', the downward one with ''[[vata]]'' and that from both the passages is associated with both ''[[kapha]]'' and ''[[vata]]''.

''[[Stambhana]]'' (styptic therapy) should not be given at first in hemorrhagic disorders having excessive impurities, aggravated ''[[dosha]]s'' and in a person who is not emaciated and weak and originated from excess nourishment. If checked at the very start, it produces throat congestion, fetid smell from the nose, fainting, anorexia, fever, ''gulma'', spleen enlargement, hardness of bowels, leucoderma, dysuria, skin disorders, piles, erysipelas, loss of complexion, fistula-in-ano, obstruction to intellect and senses.
Hence for successful management, one should at first ignore (should not give styptic therapy) the hemorrhagic disorder after assessing the strength and condition or morbidity in a strong patient. [25-28]

Mostly the ''raktapitta'' is aggravated by ''amadosha'', hence patient should be managed with lightening measures. The physician should apply in the beginning of ''raktapitta'', lightening or nourishing measure according to passage, association of ''[[dosha]]'' and etiology. [29-30]

The patient who feels thirsty should be given water boiled with hribera, chandana, ushira, musta and parpataka or only cooled boiled water. One having knowledge of constitution and preparation should prescribe saturating drink in upward movement of raktapitta and liquid gruel in the downward one considering time, suitability and association of doshas. For saturation, water boiled with kharjura (date), mridvika (fruit), madhuka (dry flowers) and parushaka (fruit) and cooled along with sugar.
Powder of parched paddy mixed with ghee and honey makes a good saturating preparation which, if taken timely, alleviates the upward movement of raktapitta. The saturating preparation may be soured with pomegranates and amalaka fruits in persons having poor digestion and suited to sour things.(31-35)

Now the management of strong patients having plenty of ''[[dosha]]s'' will be explained further:
''Raktapitta'', due to excess nutrition in a strong patient with aggravated ''[[dosha]]s'', who do not have emaciation, debility and complications, should be treated with purification therapy by purgation in upward type and emesis in lower movement of ''raktapitta''.
Purgation should be administered with (the decoction) of ''trivrita, haritaki,'' fruit of ''aragavadha, trayamana, indrayana'' (roots) or ''amalaka'' (fruits) mixed with plenty of honey and sugar. Their decoction is efficacious particularly in ''raktapitta''.
In the downward ''raktapitta madanaphala'' mixed with
#''mantha'' (churned beverage) also having honey and sugar, or
#water added with sugar or
#sugarcane juice, or ''indrayava, musta, madana, madhuka'' and honey – all mixed together make an excellent emetic.

Hemorrhagic disorder gets alleviated by the use of water in contact with ''vaidurya'' (cat's eye), pearls, gems, ochre, earth, conch, ''nagakeshara'' and ''amalaka''; honey-water and sugar cane juice.
Clear water kept with ''ushira'', lotus, water lily, sandal and cooked earthen cold (or brick) well-cooled and mixed with sugar and honey should be administered to check excessive bleeding.
Water kept with ''priyangu, chandana, lodhra, sariva, madhuka, musta, ushira'' and ''dhataki,'' or water kept with brick, or ''shashtika'' rice water added with sugar is an excellent haemostatic. [79-81]

#the drugs of ''vidarigandhadi'' group or
#''draksha'' or

The hemorrhagic disorder coming out of the nose should be treated with the above decoctive drugs in the form of ''avapida'' (nasal errhines with juice) when the vitiated ''[[dosha]]s'' are eliminated, otherwise if the affected ''[[rakta]]'' is checked by juice-snuffing it produces obstinate coryza, head diseases, blood with pus and corpse-like smell, loss of smell sensation and maggots.
In this condition snuffing with:
#''nilotpala'', ochre, conch, sandal along with sugar water,
#juice of mango-seed, ''lajjalu, dhataki, mocharasa'' and ''lodhra'',
#grape juice,
#sugarcane juice,
#milk,
#juice of ''durva'',
#''yavasa'' roots,
#''palandu'' (bulbs),
#juice of pomegranate flowers,
#''priyala taila'' or buffalo's or goat's ghee cooked with ''madhuka'' and milk,
#mango seed, ''lajjatu, dhataki, mocarasa'' and ''lodhra'' along with milk,
#''sariva, kamala'' and ''utpala'' with milk. [97-101]

== Tattva Vimarsha (Fundamental Principles) ==
*The causes of ''raktapitta'' include excess consumption of food with hot potency and ingredients with sharp, sour, pungent and salty taste, exposure to the sun and foods that cause burning sensations.
*''[[Pitta dosha]]'' and ''[[rakta]]'' have similar properties in terms of vitiation, odor, color and origin. Therefore, anything affecting ''[[pitta]]'' will affect ''[[rakta]]'' and vice versa.
*The ''[[pitta]]'' and ''[[rakta]]'' (blood) including blood vessels originate from spleen and liver.
*Affliction by ''[[kapha]]'' in ''[[rakta]]'' can be observed by appearance of viscous, pale, unctuous and slimy blood (in blood coming out).
*Blackish, reddish, frothy, thin and roughness in blood indicates affliction by ''[[vata]]''.
*Blood having ochre-like, black, cow-urine-like, shining black, smoky and collyrium-like color indicates ''[[pitta]]'' affliction. Due to combination of two ''[[dosha]]s'' the symptoms of both manifest. ''Raktapitta'' caused by ''sannipata'' has symptoms of all the three ''[[dosha]]s''.
*The prognosis and treatment of ''raktapitta'' depend upon movement of vitiated ''[[rakta]]'', direction of its flow, origin, severity of disease, strength of patient.
*''Raktapitta'' is caused by food having predominantly unctuous-hot and rough-hot properties. The former often gives rise to the upward movement and the latter to the downward movement of ''raktapitta''.
*The upward movement in ''raktapitta'' is associated with ''[[kapha]]'', the downward one with ''[[vata]]'' and that from both the passages is associated with both ''[[kapha]]'' and ''[[vata]]''.
*''[[Stambhana]]'' (styptic therapy) should not be given at first in hemorrhagic disorders having excessive impurities, aggravated ''[[dosha]]s'', over-nourished and in a person who is not emaciated and weak.
*Mostly the ''raktapitta'' is aggravated by ''amadosha'', hence patient should be managed with ''[[langhana]]'' (lightening measures). In the beginning stage of ''raktapitta'', lightening or nourishing measure according to passage, association of ''[[dosha]]'' and etiology shall be applied.
*''Raktapitta'', due to excess nutrition in a strong patient with aggravated ''[[[dosha]]s'', who don’t have emaciation, debility and complications, should be treated with purification therapy by purgation in upward type and emesis in lower movement of ''raktapitta''.
*After purification, in the case of upward type, the dietetic regimen starts with saturating drinks. In that of downward type, it starts with gruel subjected to the condition that ''[[vata]]'' is not dominant.
*All types of sweet, bitter, astringent medicines with cold potency are indicated in diet and medicinal management. In lifestyle management, the cold measures and avoiding exposure to excess heat are applied in treatment of hemorrhagic disorders.

Bleeding disorders are often caused by a failure of the blood to clot. Several conditions can affect the way the blood clots. Many causes are related to protein defects in the plasma (the liquid component of blood). These proteins are directly responsible for how the blood coagulates (clots). In some diseases, these proteins might be missing completely or they may be low in count. The majority of these defects are hereditary (passed from parent to child through genes). However, some may develop due to other medical conditions. Other conditions that can cause bleeding disorders are:

Types of Bleeding Disorders
=== Types of Bleeding Disorders ===
There are several bleeding disorders that can be inherited (passed down through genetics) or acquired. Some cause bleeding spontaneously, whereas others cause bleeding following an accident.
There are several bleeding disorders that can be inherited (passed down through genetics) or acquired. Some cause bleeding spontaneously, whereas others cause bleeding following an accident.
The most common inherited bleeding disorders are:
The most common inherited bleeding disorders are:
*'''Hemophilia A and B''': caused by a deficiency or lack of certain blood clotting proteins, called factors. This disorder causes heavy or unusual bleeding
*'''Factor II, V, VII, X, XII deficiency''': relate to blood clotting problems or abnormal bleeding problems
*'''von Willebrand’s Disease''': the most common inherited bleeding disorder; caused by a deficiency of von Willebrand factor, which helps blood platelets clump together and stick to a blood vessel wall.
Certain diseases or medical conditions can also cause a deficiency of one or more blood clotting factors. The most common causes of acquired bleeding disorders are end-stage liver disease or vitamin K deficiency. According to the American Association of Clinical Chemistry (AACC), this is because most blood clotting factors are produced in the liver, and certain clotting factors are vitamin k dependent (AACC, 2011).

There are various bleeding disorders, some of which can be correlated with ''raktapitta''. Bleeding disorders can occur either due to decrease in coagulation factor in blood or due to increase in bleeding factor. When patient has bleeding from anus (''guda'') or vagina(''yoni''), then it is difficult to differentiate whether the disease is ''adhoga raktapitta'' or ''raktarsha'' or ''raktatisara'' or ''pradara''. There are major similarities in causes, signs, ''[[dosha]]s'' involved but also minor differences. And that minor differences need to be studied to capture the right link of disease, which can be done only when one has, the deep knowledge of Ayurvedic diagnostic tool i.e. ''nidanpanchaka''. The profound cognizance of ''nidanapanchaka'' as a diagnostic tool can enhance the treatment modalities of Ayurvedic management of diseases in coming years.
