Impairment of ''jatharagni'' leads to morbidity of all the three ''dosha''. ''Mala'' in the present context refers to morbid ''vata'', ''pitta'' and ''kapha'', the metabolic bi-products formed during ''dhatu'' metabolism i.e. during tissue formation as well as the wastes like excreta<ref name="ref1">Agnivesha. Charaka Samhita, elaborated by Charaka & Dridabala with Ayurveda Deepika commentary by Chakrapani Datta, Vaidya Jadavaji Trikamji ed., 2009 Edition, Varanasi, Chaukhambha Orientalia, Pp 738, Pg no 491</ref>. Impairment of ''agni'' leads to excess formation of metabolic bi products (''mala'') and less formation of quality products. This leads to accumulation of the waste at micro-cellular circulation, which causes multiple diseases. More specifically, this accumulation of wastes at various visceral organs like liver, spleen etc. leads to distension of abdomen<ref name="ref13">Agnivesha.

The Sanskrit term ''chyuta'' refers to the act to descend and the ''vriddhi'' implies abdominal enlargement. Descent of the spleen is said to happen due to the violent jerk that happens during different physical activities. Descended spleen causes abdominal enlargement. Further this is of four types based on causative morbidity of ''dosha'' as ''vataja, pittaja, kaphaja'' and ''sannipataja''. <ref name="ref31">Agnivesha. Charaka Samhita, elaborated by Charaka & Dridabala with Ayurveda Deepika commentary by Chakrapani Datta, Vaidya Jadavaji Trikamji ed., 2009 Edition, Varanasi, Chaukhambha Orientalia, Pp 738, Pg no 493</ref>In Sanskrit, the word ''Achyuta'' refers to lack of downward displacement. ''Vriddhi'' refers to the abdominal enlargement. Put together, the word ''achyuta plihavriddhi'' refers to the abdominal enlargement due to splenic causes without its descending. The morbidity of the ''rakta dhatu'' causes enlargement of the spleen which in turn is responsible for the abdominal distension. Thus, the ''chyuta'' and ''achyuta'' type of ''plihodara'' together forms five types of ''plihodara''<ref name="ref31" /> [36].
