<p style="text-align:justify;">The chapter deals with the etio-pathogenesis and management of ''hikka'' (hiccups) and ''shwasa'' (dyspnea). The general causative factors include dietary and environmental pathogens and specific pathogenesis is due to involvement of [[vata]] and [[kapha]] as major [[dosha]]. Thus five types of ''hikka'' and ''shwasa'' are elaborated. The classification is based upon clinical presentation of disease and includes three types each of ''hikka'' and ''shwasa'' with bad prognostic signs pointing to imminent death. The description comprehends basic principles of management focused on removing obstruction of [[kapha]] and allowing proper flow of [[vata]] by means of purification therapies, sudation, nasal errhines, medicated smoking and various formulations. The management emphasizes on nourishment and pacification therapies to successfully treat and prevent ''shwasa'' and ''hikka'' conditions. Depletion therapies are strongly contra-indicated as they may worsen the condition of patient and disease. </p>

=== Origin of diseases ===

The origin of hikka shwas diseases occurs at the site of Pitta dosha (Pitta sthana) which is lower part of stomach and duodenum from undigested food substances. [Chakrapani Cha.Sa. [[Chikitsa Sthana]] 17/8] The upper part of stomach is referred to as the site for kapha dosha,.[Chakrapani Cha.Sa. [[Sutra Sthana]] 20/8]. Therefore the lower end of stomach and duodenum is considered as the site of origin of shwasa and hikka. Derangement of digestion and metabolism is an important basic pathological event leading to vitiation of kapha and its manifestation (vyakti sthana) in chest.

Derangement of digestion and metabolism (agnimandya) causes malformation and nourishment of all body tissues ([[dhatu]]). This further leads to vitiation of kapha and pitta dosha resulting in increase in vata dosha. [Chakrapani Cha.Sa. [[Sutra Sthana]] 6/34]

In chronic cases of Shwasa internal administration of unctuous substance (snehapana) in pure form or medicates formulation like dashamula ghrita is useful to control vata dosha. This reduces dryness (kharatva) of respiratory tract (pranavah srotas) and pacifies movement of vata (vatanulomana). In chronic stage of svasa, vata becomes more dominant while in new cases Kapha dominancy is observed.<ref> Personal email communication by Dr. Mali Pawan, dt. January 03, 2020 </ref>

Drugs prescribed for [[Pandu]], [[Shotha]] and [[Kasa]] may be used in the management of Shwasa(Su.Utt 51/43). Drugs prescribed for [[Kasa]], Kshaya, chhardi and hikka can be used for Shwasa.(A.H.ch.59)
