→Pathophysiology of kasa
''Vata'' being obstructed in the lower region of the body, moves upwards, afflicts the channels of circulation in the upper part of the body, takes over the function of ''udana vayu'' and gets localized in the throat and chest. Then entering all the cavities in the head, fills them up and causes hunching and convulsive movements of the body, jaws, sides of the neck and eyes. Thereafter this obstructed ''vata'' causes contraction and stiffness of the eyes, back, chest and sides of the chest, gives rise to ''kasa'' which may be dry or with phlegm because of which it is known as ''kasa''.[6-8]
