Depending upon the etiological factors, Ayurveda prescribes one of two types of therapies – spiritual and rational. A specific rational treatment of jwara could involve the use of processed ghee (clarified butter) with suitable drugs in a chronic fever is to alleviate all the three doshas.

(Physical) diseases caused are of three types, viz., agneya (pitta-predominant diseases), saumya (kapha-predominant diseases) and vayavya (vata-predominant diseases). Others (mental) are of two types viz. rajas and tamas. [4]

Line 102: Line 132:

Samprapti can be further classified, depending upon certain specific characteristics, by sankhya (numerological classification), pradhanya (dominance of dosha), vidhi (types of diseases), vikalpa (dominance of one or the other attributes of doshas), and bala-kala vishesha (the time of manifestation or aggravation of the disease).

Pradhanya (classification of samprapti, or pathogenesis) indicates the dominance or primacy of one particular dosha above other doshas. If two doshas get vitiated, the comparative term ‘tara’ is used to indicate the predominant one. If, all the three doshas get vitiated then the superlative term ‘tama’ is used to indicate the most predominant one. [12.2]

==== Vidhi or types of diseases can be illustrated as follows ====

Diseases are of two varieties - nija (endogenous) or agantu (exogenous). On the basis of vitiation of the doshas, diseases could be of three types; they could also be of four varieties, viz. sadhya (curable), asadhya (incurable), mrudu (mild), and daruna (severe). [12.3]

Predominance of one or the other attribute of the three doshas (in the manifestation of the disease) is known as vikalpa here. [12.4]

This vitiated vayu, when it gets into the amashaya (stomach), afflicts agni and vitiates the first dhatu (rasa) created through this vitiated digestion process. This (vitiated admixture of vayu and rasa) blocks the channels associated with rasa and sweda (sweat), adversely affecting the digestive processes and moving that heat out of its locus into other parts of the body. This excess heat leads to jwara. [20]

==== The symptoms of vata-dominant jwara are thus: ====

+

The patient would experience abrupt onset and remission (of fever), with variations in temperature and severity. Jwara would be particularly severe at the end of digestion and there would be temporal variations as well (i.e., day, night and in summer). The patient’s skin would appear rough, and there would be reddish discoloration of nails, eyes, face, urine, stool and skin. The patient would experience excessively reduced tendency to pass urine, faeces, excessive tearing of nails, etc. Debilitating pain radiating from the toe up, with various sensations felt at various parts as the pain travels – numbness in feet, cramps in the calves, looseness in knee joints (and also in all other joints), weakness in thighs, excruciating pain in the waist region, aching in the sides, pressure sensation in back, churning in shoulder, cutting in arms, extracting in scapular region and constricting feeling in chest, inability to move the jaws, tinnitus, and piercing pain (pricking pain) in the temple region. (Other symptoms include) astringent taste or lack of taste in the mouth (distaste), dryness of mouth, palate and throat, thirst, catching pain (grabbing pain) in the heart, dry vomiting, dry cough, loss of sneezing and eructation, aversion to the taste, salivation, anorexia, diminished digestive power, malaise, increased yawning, bending, shivering, exhaustion, giddiness, irrelevant talk, insomnia, horripilation, sensitivity in teeth, and the desire for hot. Factors mentioned in the etiology are alleviating and contrary to them are aggravating. [21]
