Agnivesha , an intelligent disciple, asked his doubt with modest salute of folded hands to Lord Atreya, who has the knowledge about the subject and principles of the Vedas “The diseases are categorized under two categories (''samanyaja'' and ''nanatmaja'') of three ''dosha'' (''vata, pitta'' and ''kapha'') aggravated due to three factors (like unwholesome utilization of sense organs (''asatmendriyartha samyoga''), intellectual errors (''pajnaparadha'') and advent of maturity of time (''parinama'')). Which among these diseases is most difficult to cure?” [3-4]

After listening to Agnivesha, Lord Punarvasu, the most prudent among the sages was very delighted and made ultimate and conclusive statement. “In fact there are many diseases which can kill a patient. But none of the diseases is as lethal as ''shwasa'' and ''hikka'' as they can cause immediate death. The person suffering from any other disease can also get eventually afflicted with enormously painful ''hikka'' and ''shwasa'' at the time of death.”[3-7]

''Hikka'' and ''shwasa'' are mainly ''kapha'' and ''vata'' dominant in nature. They originate at the site of ''pitta'' (upper part of stomach). This results in further depletion of ''dhatus'' like ''rasa'' situated in heart. Hence generally they are extremely difficult to treat. After getting afflicted with this disease, if one indulges in unwholesome regimens, then disease gets aggravated and results in death just as from fatal snake venom. [8-9]

By the above mentioned etiological factors the ''vata'' gets aggravated in the ''pranavahasrotas'' ( channels carrying ''prana'') and deranges the ''kapha'' situated in the chest region producing lethal blockage of ''pranavayu'' and five types of dreadful ''hikka'' and ''shwasa''. [17-18]

Excessive aggravation of ''kapha'' and ''vayu'' in an aged, emaciated and mentally depressed individual leads to ''hikka''. This ''hikka'' is characterised by deep and resonant sound, and affliction of the chest. He yawns, contracts and expands his body, and while respiring he contracts both the flanks making murmuring sounds, and suffers from stiffness and pain. In such a patient the ''hikka'' arises from the umbilicus or ''pakvashaya'' (intestines) with pain all over the body. During this time his body bends and he suffers from black outs, obstruction in the respiratory tract and loss of strength and unconsciousness. Such ''hikka'' is known as ''gambhira hikka'' which ultimately results in death. [27-30]

The ''vyapeta hikka'' produced after the intake of four types of food (i.e. eatable, chewable, drinkable, lickable) and gets aggravated after food gets digested. He suffers from delirium, vomiting, diarrhea, thirst and unconsciousness. There is yawning, watering of eyes, dryness of mouth and bending of the body, and ''adhmana'' (distension of the abdomen). This ''hikka'' originates from the root of the clavicle and attack is not continuous. ''Hikka'' is injurious to life. [31-33]

The ''vayu'' gets slightly aggravated in the ''koshtha'' (alimentary tract), due to the physical exercises and reaches the throat and produces ''kshudra hikka''. This does not produce much pain and does not afflict the head and vital parts (''hridaya marma''). In this type of ''hikka'', the ''doshas'' do not reside or get lodged in the channels of respiration, food and drinks. This gets aggravated on exertion and subsides on taking food. ''Hikka'' gets subsided by itself also. The ''doshas'' are situated in cardiac region, ''kloma'', throat and palate. This mild form of ''hikka'' is curable and known as ''kshudra hikka''. [35-37]

The ''hikka'' destroys a person suffering from excessive accumulation of ''doshas'', emaciated due to fasting, emaciated due to disease, weak due to ageing or excessive indulgence in sex. The symptoms of delirium, pain, excess thirst and stupor in ''yamika hikka'' patient make it incurable for treatment.

The eyes get distorted and he cannot visualize properly. The eyes and face become abnormal and the elimination of urine and feces is obstructed and the voice becomes feeble and the person looks tired and respiration could be heard from distance, such person suffering from ''mahashwasa'' succumbs to death very fast.

The vitiated ''kapha'' obstructs channels of respiration leading to aggravation of ''vata'' resulting in prolonged expiration and shallow inspiration (breath doesn’t get deeply inspired). The patient looks up with moving eye balls as if he is scared of something. When he gets afflicted with this type of ''shwasa'' he suffers from unconsciousness, dryness of mouth, restlessness. The upward movement of ''vayu'' is aggravated resulting in obstruction of downward movement and unconsciousness, black outs and he succumbs to death quickly. [49-51]

The ''vayu'' moves in the opposite direction due to the obstruction in the respiratory tract, stiffness in the neck, head aggravates the ''kapha'' and produces rhinorrhoea, and ''gurghuraka'' sound (rhonchi). Exceedingly severe attack afflicts the ''prana'' and enhances severity. During severe attack, the patient faints repeatedly, has severe cough and becomes unconscious. The patient finds it difficult to expectorate the phlegm and feels relieved for period of 1 ''muhurta'' (3 hours) after expectoration of phlegm. There is hoarseness of voice and patient speaks with difficulty, even he does not get proper sleep, and on lying down he suffers from dyspnea as his flanks are afflicted by ''vayu''. He feels comfortable in the sitting position. He likes hot things. His eye balls are always prominent, there is sweat on the forehead, dryness of the mouth, gets repeated attacks of dyspnea, and it increases and subsides repeatedly.

In a patient of ''tamaka shwasa'' if ''jwara'' (fever) and unconsciousness are occurring as complication, then it is called as ''pratamaka shwasa''. The ''shwasa'' produced due to ''udavarta'' (upward movement of ''vayu'' in ''koshtha''), dust, indigestion, excessive liquid accumulation in the body (''klinna kaya''), and suppression of natural urges results in increase of ''tama''. This gets relieved by following of cooling regimen. The person suffering from this ''shwasa'' feels as if he is submerged in darkness, thus it is known as ''santamaka''.[63-64]

Due to intake of dry food and exertion, ''vata'' is mildly vitiated in ''koshtha'' and moves in the upward direction i.e respiratory tract resulting in ''kshudra shwasa''. The patient suffering from this type of ''shwasa'' does not have any affliction of various body parts and the functions are not affected. It is not very painful as it does not affect the channels of food and drinks nor does it cause pain to the sense organs. This is curable if the symptom is not completely manifested and the patient is strong. Thus all the types of ''hikka'' and ''shwasa'' are elaborated along with their signs and symptoms.[65-67]

If neglected then it destroys the ''prana'' of the patient as the fire burns away the dry grass very fast.[68-69]
