The three somatic ''doshas'' located at the same place and having identical attributes mostly combine with one another (''samsarga'') or with all taken together (''sannipata''). Attributes of ''doshas'' resemble those of the factors which vitiate those ''doshas''. [10]

Characteristic features of primary and secondary (subordinate) diseases are as follows:
Characteristic features of primary and secondary (subordinate) diseases are as follows:
The primary disease manifests its own symptoms independently; this morbid condition is caused by factors specific to the manifestation of the disease. This can be cured by the therapies prescribed for that particular disease. The subordinate disease is characterized by opposite features. If all the three doshas are primarily vitiated at a time, the condition is known as sannipata. If only two of the doshas are vitiated, it is called samsarga. Depending upon the primary and subordinate nature of doshas, they are of many types. Considering such characteristic features, physicians attribute various names (like jwara or fever and atisara or diarrhea) to different conditions caused by doshas and diseases. [11]
