Improper cutting of the umbilical cord and administering of measures explained in the preceding verse could lead to complications such as ayamottundita (vertical swelling), vyayamottundita (horizontal swelling), pindalika (lumpy swellings or formation of a circular ring around the umblicus), vinamika (swelling in the margins with depression at centre), and vijrumbhika (swelling with constant increase in size as in umblical hernia). In case of these complications, by carefully observing the severity of the condition (mild to severe involvement of the doshas), it should be treated using massages, unction, and sprinkling of ghee prepared with drugs that are non-irritants and vata and pitta pacifying.
