Jwara is the commonest clinical condition observed in medical practice either as a primary disease or as a secondary sign owing to other morbidities. Hence it is given prime importance among all diseases. [Cha.Sa. [[Sutra Sthana]] 25/40] Calor (rise in temperature), rubor (redness), dolor(pain), tumor (swelling) are the cardinal signs of inflammation. Pathogenesis of jwara includes change in body temperature, discoloration, aches. Therefore, jwara is also an indicator of inflammatory changes in body.
