Excessive hemorrhage after excision, excisable growths, ''kaphaja'' nodules, glands, stiffness and disorders due to ''vata'', wounds with hidden pus and lymph, deep and firm; and after amputation of body part, cauterization is prescribed. The expert in cauterization should cauterize the spot with beeswax, oil, marrow, honey, muscle-fat, ''ghrita'' or various heated metallic sticks. Wounds deep and predominant in ''vata'' and in patients rough and delicate should be cauterized with fat or beeswax otherwise with iron stick or honey. Cauterization should not be applied in children, debilitated, old persons, pregnant women, those suffering from internal hemorrhage, thirst, fever, weak and poisoned persons and in wounds situated at ligaments and vital parts, poisoned, foreign body, ophthalmic and leprotic wounds.[101-106]

The physician conversant with dose, time and agni (heat) may apply alkali in cases amenable to surgical treatment and cauterization according to severity of disease and morbidity. Wounds attain hardness by being fumigated with aromatic substances and heartwoods. The wounds get softened if fumigated with ghrita, marrow or muscle-fat. Through fumigation pain, discharges, odours, maggots, hardness and softness of wounds are removed. Lodhra, leafbuds of nyagrodha, khadira, triphala and ghrita - this combination used as paste provides looseness and softness in wounds. The wounds which are painful, hard, stiff and without discharge should be pasted frequently with barley powder mixed with ghrita. Wounds may be saturated by applying frequently the paste of payasa (cereals cooked with milk) made of mudga, shashtika and sali rice or jivaniya drugs mixed with ghrita.(110-112)
