Gulma is defined as a palpable round compact lump in the abdomen. Thus, all the localized palpable masses in the abdomen are classified under gulma, but they are named depending upon the dominance of dosha or the place. Its four types belong to dosha i.e. three of single doṣha and one of a combination of all the three dosha and the fifth one is rakta gulma which occurs only in females in uterine cavity (garbhashayashroni). Sannipata Gulma has been given synonym as nichaya-gulma.
