<p style="text-align:justify;">''Kshatakshina'' is a condition with ''kshaya'' (wasting, debility, emaciation) due to injury/trauma. Trauma is usually from external injury but in the present context this term signifies rupture of lung tissue due to exogenous as well as endogenous causes. The etiology includes significant exertion beyond one’s capacity. The disease shows close resemblance with ''rajayakshma'' in pathogenesis, as both involve ''anuloma kshaya'' (the depletion of ''[[dhatu]]s'' takes place in the direction of their nourishment i.e. ''[[rasa]]'' then ''[[rakta]]'' then ''[[mamsa]]'' and so on) and ''pratiloma kshaya'' (depletion of ''[[dhatu]]s'' in the direction opposite to their nourishment i.e. ''[[shukra]]'' then ''[[majja]]'' then ''[[asthi]]'' and so on). Nourishment therapy is the principle of management in ''kshatakshina''. Various formulations to regain strength and replenishment of depleted tissues are described in this chapter. <br/>
