=== Abstract ===
 
  
''Raktapitta'' is a disease not yet known to modern medical science. It is a treatable bleeding disorder, if recognized and managed in early stage. If diagnosis is missed and disease is not managed properly, it becomes life threatening (''mahagada''). Unlike most other bleeding disorders which are hereditary, ''raktapitta'' is acquired and occurs because of excessive aggravation of ''pitta'' and its affliction with ''rakta''. Before initiation of treatment, it is important to assess strength of the patient because the treatment regimen is personified for well nourished and emaciated persons. Etiology, classification, prognosis and treatment of ''raktapitta'' have been described in detail. A good number of herbal and animal preparations are given. Further, this chapter enumerates aspects that are favorable or unfavorable to ''raktapitta''. To improve the efficacy of treatment, external beneficial measures, such as ''pradeha, parisheka, sheetasnana'' and habitat are described at the end of chapter.

== Introduction ==
 +
<div style="text-align:justify;">
 +
''Raktapitta'' is a serious disease caused due to vitiation of ''[[rakta]]'' by aggravated ''[[pitta]]''. This chapter is placed after ''jwara'', because ''raktapitta'' can occur due to the increased heat in the body produced after ''jwara''. Prompt management is necessary for this dreadful disease. This disease develops due to ''[[pitta]]'' aggravation as a result of consumption of ''ushna, teekshna, agneya dravya'' and excessive exposure to sunlight.
  
'''Keywords''': ''Raktapitta, Chikitsa, Mahagada,'' bleeding disorders, ''pitta'' aggravation, ''rakta'' vitiation.
+
Because of similarity in constitution of ''[[pitta]]'' with ''[[rakta]], [[rakta dhatu]]'' is also vitiated by the etiological factors and has similarity in its smell and color, and is therefore called ''raktapitta''.
  
=== Introduction ===
+
It originates in the spleen and liver which play pivotal roles in the blood physiology, including clotting. Manifestations of ''raktapitta'' depend upon vitiation and predominance of a particular ''[[dosha]]''. There may be a combination of one, two or all the three ''[[dosha]]''. Based on ''[[dosha]]'' specific features, the blood of the patient of ''raktapitta'' may appear pale, unctuous and slimy in ''[[kapha]]'', frothy, blackish red in ''[[vata]]'' and cane sugar like cow urine, shiny black, smoky and coarse-like collerium in ''[[pitta]]''. ''Raktapitta'' associated with one ''[[dosha]]'' is curable, with two ''[[dosha]]'' is difficult to cure and incurable if all three ''[[dosha]]'' are involved.

Movement of ''raktapitta'' may be upward or downward meaning bleeding from upper and/or lower external orifices. This manifestation depends on etiological factors, unctuous hot factors associated with ''[[kapha]]'' has upward ''raktapitta'' however rough hot associated with ''[[vata]]'' has downward ''raktapitta''.
  
Because of similarity in constitution of ''pitta'' with ''rakta, rakta dhatu'' is also vitiated by the etiological factors and has similarity in its smell and color, and is therefore called ''raktapitta''.
+
Upward ''raktapitta'', associated with ''[[kapha dosha]]'' is treated with ''tarpana'' (nourishment therapy) and downwards ''raktapitta'' is associated with ''[[vata]]'' and ''peya'' (liquid gruel) should be used.

+
Their drugs mainly have ''madhura, tikta'' and ''sheeta guna'' which pacify ''[[pitta]]'' and ''[[rakta]]''. One herb which is very important in ''raktapitta'' is ''vasa'', which alone can check the bleeding quickly.

The physician knowing causes and symptoms should quickly manage the case of haemorrhagic disorders which is an acute dreadful disease, having more severity and quick-acting like fire. The etiology of the same has already been said earlier such as intake of hot, sharp, sour, pungent and salty substances in excess, exposure to the sun and foods that cause burning sensations. [5-6]

''Pitta'' aggravated by these causes vitiates ''rakta''. Due to similarity in constitution (of ''rakta'' and ''pitta''), the pathogenesis develops furthermore to vitiate ''rakta''. Due to heat of ''pitta'', the fluid portion from all the fomented ''dhatus'' oozes out, which additionally leads to aggravation of ''rakta'' and ''pitta''. [7-8]

Movement of ''raktapitta'' is directed upwards and downwards, the former through seven orifices and the latter through two orifices. There are seven orifices in head and two below. That coming from upper passages is curable, the one coming downwards is palliable and that which comes both ways is incurable. When it flows out from all the orifices including the hair follicles it is known as with innumerable movements which is fatal.

''Raktapitta'' is caused by food having predominantly unctuous-hot and rough-hot properties. The former often gives rise to the upward movement and the latter to the downward movement of ''raktapitta''. The upward movement in ''raktapitta'' is associated with ''kapha'', the downward one with ''vata'' and that from both the passages is associated with both ''kapha'' and ''vata''. [23-24]

''Stambhana'' (styptic therapy) should not be given at first in hemorrhagic disorders having excessive impurities, aggravated ''doshas'' and in a person who is not emaciated and weak and originated from excess nourishment. If checked at the very start, it produces throat congestion, fetid smell from the nose, fainting, anorexia, fever, ''gulma'', spleen enlargement, hardness of bowels, leucoderma, dysuria, skin disorders, piles, erysipelas, loss of complexion, fistula-in-ano, obstruction to intellect and senses.

Bleeding disorders are often caused by a failure of the blood to clot. Several conditions can affect the way the blood clots. Many causes are related to protein defects in the plasma (the liquid component of blood). These proteins are directly responsible for how the blood coagulates (clots). In some diseases, these proteins might be missing completely or they may be low in count. The majority of these defects are hereditary (passed from parent to child through genes).

Many causes are related to protein defects in the plasma (the liquid component of blood). These proteins are directly responsible for how the blood coagulates (clots). In some diseases, these proteins might be missing completely or they may be low in count. The majority of these defects are hereditary (passed from parent to child through genes). However, some may develop due to other medical conditions. Other conditions that can cause bleeding disorders are:

Certain diseases or medical conditions can also cause a deficiency of one or more blood clotting factors. The most common causes of acquired bleeding disorders are end-stage liver disease or vitamin K deficiency. According to the American Association of Clinical Chemistry (AACC), this is because most blood clotting factors are produced in the liver, and certain clotting factors are vitamin k dependent (AACC, 2011).

Abstract

Raktapitta is a treatable bleeding disorder, if recognized and managed in early stage. If diagnosis is missed and disease is not managed properly, it becomes life threatening (mahagada).It occurs because of excessive aggravation of pitta and its affliction with rakta. Before initiation of treatment, it is important to assess strength of the patient because the treatment regimen is personified for well nourished and emaciated persons. Etiology, classification, prognosis and treatment of raktapitta have been described in detail. A good number of herbal and animal preparations are given. Further, this chapter enumerates aspects that are favorable or unfavorable to raktapitta. To improve the efficacy of treatment, external beneficial measures, such as pradeha, parisheka, sheetasnana and habitat are described at the end of chapter. This bleeding disorder is not described in modern medicine writings and appears to be unknown to allopathic medicine.

Keywords: Raktapitta, Chikitsa, Mahagada, bleeding disorders, pitta aggravation, rakta vitiation.


Introduction

Raktapitta is a serious disease caused due to vitiation of rakta by aggravated pitta. This chapter is placed after jwara, because raktapitta can occur due to the increased heat in the body produced after jwara. Prompt management is necessary for this dreadful disease. This disease develops due to pitta aggravation as a result of consumption of ushna, teekshna, agneya dravya and excessive exposure to sunlight.

Because of similarity in constitution of pitta with rakta, rakta dhatu is also vitiated by the etiological factors and has similarity in its smell and color, and is therefore called raktapitta.

It originates in the spleen and liver which play pivotal roles in the blood physiology, including clotting. Manifestations of raktapitta depend upon vitiation and predominance of a particular dosha. There may be a combination of one, two or all the three dosha. Based on dosha specific features, the blood of the patient of raktapitta may appear pale, unctuous and slimy in kapha, frothy, blackish red in vata and cane sugar like cow urine, shiny black, smoky and coarse-like collerium in pitta. Raktapitta associated with one dosha is curable, with two dosha is difficult to cure and incurable if all three dosha are involved.

Movement of raktapitta may be upward or downward meaning bleeding from upper and/or lower external orifices. This manifestation depends on etiological factors, unctuous hot factors associated with kapha has upward raktapitta however rough hot associated with vata has downward raktapitta.

Upward raktapitta, associated with kapha dosha is treated with tarpana (nourishment therapy) and downwards raktapitta is associated with vata and peya (liquid gruel) should be used.

Their drugs mainly have madhura, tikta and sheeta guna which pacify pitta and rakta. One herb which is very important in raktapitta is vasa, which alone can check the bleeding quickly.

Sanskrit text, Transliteration and English Translation

अथातो रक्तपित्तचिकित्सितं व्याख्यास्यामः ||१||

इति ह स्माह भगवानात्रेयः||२||

Now we shall expound the chapter "Raktapitta Chikitsa"(Management of bleeding disorders). Thus said Lord Atreya. [1-2]

Agnivesha’s query

विहरन्तं जितात्मानं पञ्चगङ्गे पुनर्वसुम्|
प्रणम्योवाच निर्मोहमग्निवेशोऽग्निवर्चसम्||३||

भगवन् रक्तपित्तस्य हेतुरुक्तः सलक्षणः|
वक्तव्यं यत् परं तस्य वक्तुमर्हसि तद्गुरो||४||

viharantaṁ jitātmānaṁ pañcagaṅgē punarvasum|
praṇamyōvāca nirmōhamagnivēśō'gnivarcasam||3||

bhagavan raktapittasya hēturuktaḥ salakṣaṇaḥ|

viharantaM jitAtmAnaM pa~jcaga~gge punarvasum|
praNamyovAca nirmohamagnivesho~agnivarcasam||3||

bhagavan raktapittasya heturuktaH salakShaNaH|
vaktavyaM yat paraM tasya vaktumarhasi tadguro||4||

Agnivesha bowed to Punarvasu Atreya who is devoid of confusion, having fire-like brilliance(sharp intellect) and self-control while he was making stroll in the panchaganga region, and said, “O Lord! the etiology along with symptoms of haemorrhagic disorders has already been said, now you may tell me the further points, O my teacher! [3-4]

Atreya Punarvasu’s reply

गुरुरुवाच-

महागदं महावेगमग्निवच्छीघ्रकारि च|
हेतुलक्षणविच्छीघ्रं रक्तपित्तमुपाचरेत्||५||

तस्योष्णं तीक्ष्णमम्लं च कटूनि लवणानि च|

gururuvāca-

mahāgadaṁ mahāvēgamagnivacchīghrakāri ca|
hētulakṣaṇavicchīghraṁ raktapittamupācarēt||5||

tasyōṣṇaṁ tīkṣṇamamlaṁ ca kaṭūni lavaṇāni ca|
gharmaścānnavidāhaśca hētuḥ pūrvaṁ nidarśitaḥ||6||

gururuvAca-

mahAgadaM mahAvegamagnivacchIghrakAri ca|
hetulakShaNavicchIghraM raktapittamupAcaret||5||

tasyoShNaM tIkShNamamlaM ca kaTUni lavaNAni ca|
gharmashcAnnavidAhashca hetuH pUrvaM nidarshitaH||6||

The teacher said-

The physician knowing causes and symptoms should quickly manage the case of haemorrhagic disorders which is an acute dreadful disease, having more severity and quick-acting like fire. The etiology of the same has already been said earlier such as intake of hot, sharp, sour, pungent and salty substances in excess, exposure to the sun and foods that cause burning sensations. [5-6]

Pathogenesis

तैर्हेतुभिः समुत्क्लिष्टं पित्तं रक्तं प्रपद्यते|
तद्योनित्वात् प्रपन्नं च वर्धतेतत् प्रदूषयत्||७||

तस्योष्मणा द्रवो धातुर्धातोर्धातोः प्रसिच्यते|
स्विद्यतस्तेन संवृद्धिं भूयस्तदधिगच्छति||८||

tairhētubhiḥ samutkliṣṭaṁ pittaṁ raktaṁ prapadyatē|
tadyōnitvāt prapannaṁ ca vardhatē tat pradūṣayat||7||

tasyōṣmaṇādravō dhāturdhātōrdhātōḥ rasicyatē|
svidyatastēnasaṁvr̥ddhiṁ hūyastadadhigacchati||8||

tairhetubhiH samutkliShTaM pittaM raktaM prapadyate|
tadyonitvAt prapannaM ca vardhate tat pradUShayat||7||

tasyoShmaNA dravo dhAturdhAtordhAtoH prasicyate|
svidyatastena saMvRuddhiM bhUyastadadhigacchati||8||

Pitta aggravated by these causes vitiates rakta. Due to similarity in constitution (of rakta and pitta), the pathogenesis develops furthermore to vitiate rakta. Due to heat of pitta, the fluid portion from all the fomented dhatus oozes out, which additionally leads to aggravation of rakta and pitta. [7-8]

Derivation

संयोगाद्दूषणात्तत्तु सामान्याद्गन्धवर्णयोः|
रक्तस्य पित्तमाख्यातं रक्तपित्तं मनीषिभिः||९||

saṁyōgāddūṣaṇāttattu sāmānyādgandhavarṇayōḥ|

saMyogAddUShaNAttattu sAmAnyAdgandhavarNayoH|
raktasya pittamAkhyAtaM raktapittaM manIShibhiH||9||

Because of conjunction with, similarity in causes of vitiation, odor, color and origin, the disease is called rakta-pitta. [9]

Origin of disease

प्लीहानं च यकृच्चैव तदधिष्ठाय वर्तते|
स्रोतांसि रक्तवाहीनि तन्मूलानि हि देहिनाम्||१०||

plīhānaṁ ca yakr̥ccaiva tadadhiṣṭhāya vartatē|

The pitta (raktapitta) stays located in spleen and liver, because in persons the blood vessels originate from them. [10]

Viscous, pale, unctuous and slimy (in blood coming out) indicates affliction by kapha. Blackish, reddish, frothy, thin and roughness in blood indicates affliction by vata. That having ochre-like, black, cow-urine-like, shining black, smoky and collerium-like color indicates pitta affliction. Due to combination of two doshas the symptoms of the concerned ones are combined. Raktapitta caused by sannipata has symptoms of all the three doshas. [11-12]

Raktapitta associated with one dosha is curable; that with two doshas is palliable while that caused by three doshas is incurable. It is also incurable if it is severely forceful and invading the person who has poor digestion, is emaciated due to diseases, old and under-nourished. [13-14]

Movement of raktapitta is directed upwards and downwards, the former through seven orifices and the latter through two orifices. There are seven orifices in head and two below. That coming from upper passages is curable, the one coming downwards is palliable and that which comes both ways is incurable. When it flows out from all the orifices including the hair follicles it is known as with innumerable movements which is fatal.

Raktapitta passing out excessively through both the passages, having corpselike smell, exceedingly red or black, associated with kapha and vata, adhering in throat, having all the complications mentioned earlier, possessing deep yellow, blue, green or coppery color and is in emaciated and coughing patient is incurable.

That raktapitta is palliable which is associated with two doshas, which aggravates again and again after subsiding and shifts from one passage to another. [15-21]

Raktapitta is caused by food having predominantly unctuous-hot and rough-hot properties. The former often gives rise to the upward movement and the latter to the downward movement of raktapitta. The upward movement in raktapitta is associated with kapha, the downward one with vata and that from both the passages is associated with both kapha and vata. [23-24]

Stambhana (styptic therapy) should not be given at first in hemorrhagic disorders having excessive impurities, aggravated doshas and in a person who is not emaciated and weak and originated from excess nourishment. If checked at the very start, it produces throat congestion, fetid smell from the nose, fainting, anorexia, fever, gulma, spleen enlargement, hardness of bowels, leucoderma, dysuria, skin disorders, piles, erysipelas, loss of complexion, fistula-in-ano, obstruction to intellect and senses.

Hence for successful management, one should at first ignore (should not give styptic therapy) the hemorrhagic disorder after assessing the strength and condition or morbidity in a strong patient. [25-28]

The patient who feels thirsty should be given water boiled with hribera, chandana, ushira, musta and parpataka or only cooled boiled water. One having knowledge of constitution and preparation should prescribe saturating drink in upward movement of raktapitta and liquid gruel in the downward one considering time, suitability and association of doshas. For saturation, water boiled with kharjura (date), mridvika (fruit), madhuka (dry flowers) and parushaka (fruit) and cooled along with sugar.

Powder of parched paddy mixed with ghee and honey makes a good saturating preparation which, if taken timely, alleviates the upward movement of raktapitta. The saturating preparation may be soured with pomegranates and amalaka fruits in persons having poor digestion and suited to sour things.[31-35]

Now the management of strong patients having plenty of doshas will be explained further:

Raktapitta, due to excess nutrition in a strong patient with aggravated doshas, who do not have emaciation, debility and complications, should be treated with purification therapy by purgation in upward type and emesis in lower movement of raktapitta.

Purgation should be administered with (the decoction) of trivrita, haritaki, fruit of aragavadha, trayamana, indrayana (roots) or amalaka (fruits) mixed with plenty of honey and sugar. Their decoction is efficacious particularly in raktapitta.

In the downward raktapitta madanaphala mixed with

  1. mantha (churned beverage) also having honey and sugar, or
  2. water added with sugar or
  3. sugarcane juice, or indrayava, musta, madana, madhuka and honey – all mixed together make an excellent emetic.

After purification, in the case of upward type, the dietetic regimen starts with saturating drink while in that of downward type, it starts with gruel subjected to the condition that vata is not dominant. [54-61]

Parpaundarika, madhuka and honey dissolved in the liquefied horse's feces or the roots of yavasa or bhringaraja dissolved in liquefied cow-dung should be taken with rice water. This alleviates hemorrhagic disorder. Or the solution of cow-dung and horse-dung mixed with honey and ghee be taken.

The patient suffering from hemorrhagic disorder should take powder of the flowers of khadira, priyangu, kovidara and shalmali mixed with honey.

Powders or shrangataka parched paddy, musta, kharjura and lotus stamens should be taken with honey.

The hemorrhagic disorder coming out of the nose should be treated with the above decoctive drugs in the form of avapida (nasal errhines with juice) when the vitiated doshas are eliminated, otherwise if the affected rakta is checked by juice-snuffing it produces obstinate coryza, head diseases, blood with pus and corpse-like smell, loss of smell sensation and maggots.

In this condition snuffing with:

  1. nilotpala, ochre, conch, sandal along with sugar water,
  2. juice of mango-seed, lajjalu, dhataki, mocharasa and lodhra,
  3. grape juice,
  4. sugarcane juice,

Now the summing up verse –

Etiology, aggravation, definition, location, symptoms, passages, curability, incurability and maintainability principle of treatment, diet indicated and contraindicated, purification and pacification measures, all this described by the teacher shall be applied for treatment of raktapitta (hemorrhagic disorder). [110]

Thus ends the fourth chapter on the treatment of hemorrhagic disorder in Chikitsa Sthana in the treatise composed by Agnivesha and redacted by Charak. (4)

Tattva Vimarsha (Fundamental Principles)

  • The causes of raktapitta include excess consumption of food with hot potency and ingredients with sharp, sour, pungent and salty taste, exposure to the sun and foods that cause burning sensations.
  • Pitta dosha and rakta have similar properties in terms of vitiation, odor, color and origin. Therefore, anything affecting pitta will affect rakta and vice versa.
  • The pitta and rakta (blood) including blood vessels originate from spleen and liver.
  • Affliction by kapha in rakta can be observed by appearance of viscous, pale, unctuous and slimy blood (in blood coming out).
  • Blackish, reddish, frothy, thin and roughness in blood indicates affliction by vata.
  • Blood having ochre-like, black, cow-urine-like, shining black, smoky and collyrium-like color indicates pitta affliction. Due to combination of two doshas the symptoms of both manifest. Raktapitta caused by sannipata has symptoms of all the three doshas.
  • The prognosis and treatment of raktapitta depend upon movement of vitiated rakta, direction of its flow, origin, severity of disease, strength of patient.
  • Raktapitta is caused by food having predominantly unctuous-hot and rough-hot properties. The former often gives rise to the upward movement and the latter to the downward movement of raktapitta.
  • The upward movement in raktapitta is associated with kapha, the downward one with vata and that from both the passages is associated with both kapha and vata.
  • Stambhana (styptic therapy) should not be given at first in hemorrhagic disorders having excessive impurities, aggravated doshas, over-nourished and in a person who is not emaciated and weak.
  • Mostly the raktapitta is aggravated by amadosha, hence patient should be managed with langhana (lightening measures). In the beginning stage of raktapitta, lightening or nourishing measure according to passage, association of dosha and etiology shall be applied.
  • Raktapitta, due to excess nutrition in a strong patient with aggravated [[[dosha]]s, who don’t have emaciation, debility and complications, should be treated with purification therapy by purgation in upward type and emesis in lower movement of raktapitta.
  • After purification, in the case of upward type, the dietetic regimen starts with saturating drinks. In that of downward type, it starts with gruel subjected to the condition that vata is not dominant.
  • All types of sweet, bitter, astringent medicines with cold potency are indicated in diet and medicinal management. In lifestyle management, the cold measures and avoiding exposure to excess heat are applied in treatment of hemorrhagic disorders.

Vidhi Vimarsha (Applied Inferences )

Bleeding disorders are often caused by a failure of the blood to clot. Several conditions can affect the way the blood clots. Many causes are related to protein defects in the plasma (the liquid component of blood). These proteins are directly responsible for how the blood coagulates (clots). In some diseases, these proteins might be missing completely or they may be low in count. The majority of these defects are hereditary (passed from parent to child through genes). However, some may develop due to other medical conditions. Other conditions that can cause bleeding disorders are:

  • liver disease
  • low red blood cell count
  • vitamin K deficiency
  • medication side-effects

Types of Bleeding Disorders

There are several bleeding disorders that can be inherited (passed down through genetics) or acquired. Some cause bleeding spontaneously, whereas others cause bleeding following an accident.

The most common inherited bleeding disorders are:

  • Hemophilia A and B: caused by a deficiency or lack of certain blood clotting proteins, called factors. This disorder causes heavy or unusual bleeding
  • Factor II, V, VII, X, XII deficiency: relate to blood clotting problems or abnormal bleeding problems
  • von Willebrand’s Disease: the most common inherited bleeding disorder; caused by a deficiency of von Willebrand factor, which helps blood platelets clump together and stick to a blood vessel wall.

Certain diseases or medical conditions can also cause a deficiency of one or more blood clotting factors. The most common causes of acquired bleeding disorders are end-stage liver disease or vitamin K deficiency. According to the American Association of Clinical Chemistry (AACC), this is because most blood clotting factors are produced in the liver, and certain clotting factors are vitamin k dependent (AACC, 2011).

Identification of Bleeding Disorders/Symptoms

The main sign of a bleeding disorder is prolonged or excessive bleeding. The bleeding is normally heavier than normal and unprovoked.

Other signs of a bleeding disorder include:

  • unexplained bruising
  • heavy menstrual bleeding
  • frequent nosebleeds

Types of raktapitta described in Ayurveda can be correlated with following disorders for understanding:

Type Ayurvedic Modern
Urdhvaga Nasa Epistaxis
Mukha Hematemesis
Karna Otorrhagia
Adhoga Guda Bacillary dysentery, melina, bloody diarrhoea
Mutra Hematuria
Yoni Menorrhagia or metrorrhagia
Tiryaka Purpura

There are various bleeding disorders, some of which can be correlated with raktapitta. Bleeding disorders can occur either due to decrease in coagulation factor in blood or due to increase in bleeding factor. When patient has bleeding from anus (guda) or vagina(yoni), then it is difficult to differentiate whether the disease is adhoga raktapitta or raktarsha or raktatisara or pradara. There are major similarities in causes, signs, doshas involved but also minor differences. And that minor differences need to be studied to capture the right link of disease, which can be done only when one has, the deep knowledge of Ayurvedic diagnostic tool i.e. nidanpanchaka. The profound cognizance of nidanapanchaka as a diagnostic tool can enhance the treatment modalities of Ayurvedic management of diseases in coming years.
