Externally situated (pathogenesis in ''shakha, rasa'' and ''rakta dhatu''), internally situated (pathogenesis in internal organs and other ''dhatu'') and situated in both (externally as well as internally) pathways ''visarpa'' is to be known more and more serious consecutively.

Affliction of vital organs, impaired consciousness, impaired circulation, morbid thirst and impaired natural urges and sudden reduction in digestive as well as immune power of body is known as ''antah-visarpa''. ''Bahih-visarpa'' should be understood by the external manifestations appearing on skin flesh etc. and by their own specific symptoms. [26-27]

''Kapha'' and ''vata'' gets vitiated due to the use of firm, heavy, hard, sweet, cold, unctuous, and ''abhishyandi'' (which increase discharges and cause obstruction) ingredients of diet, lack of physical exercise etc. not following preventive seasonal [[Panchakarma]] purification. Deranged excessively, aggravated, powerful both ''kapha'' and ''vata'' vitiates the susceptible body elements giving rise to ''granthi visarpa''. Thereafter the ''vata'' being occluded by ''kapha'' in its progress and disintegrates ''kapha'' in many ways and gradually giving rise to chain of glands, hardly suppurating and difficult to cure, in the habitats of ''kapha''.

''Upadrava'' (complication) is disorder itself, outsized or undersized manifesting in the later period of a disease and rooted in the same (disease). ''Upadrava'' is so named because it manifests after the disease. Hence the main disease is primary and complication is secondary, it is generally pacified when the main disease gets pacified. It is more troublesome than the main disease itself, because it appears in the later stages of disease when the body is already weakened. Hence, one should treat the complications very promptly.[40]

Among all types of ''visarpa vatik'', ''paittik'' and ''kaphaja'' these three are curable. ''Agni'' and ''kardam visarpa'' not spreading to vital organs and causing no suppuration of the vessels, ligaments and muscles can be pacified by the general treatment of ''visarpa''. When managed with negligence both may cause death of patients like snake venom. ''Granthi visarpa'' should be treated before complications has arisen, otherwise should be rejected. ''Sannipataja visarpa'' should be taken as incurable because of it is spreading to all ''dhatus'', very fulminant and refractory to treatment.[42]

Now the treatment of the curable varieties of ''visarpa'' will be described.

==== Formulations used in ''visarpa'' ====

</div></div>

Thus the treatment principles of ''visarpa'' have been described in brief. The same is being detailed further.

Line 739: Line 806:

Further, all those formulations which will be described in ''kalpasthana'' in connection with the disorders of ''kapha pitta'' should be used for the patients of ''visarpa'' as well because they are eliminative of morbid ''dosha'' and are beneficial.[50-53]

The skillful physician should administer the decoctions of tested efficacy for the cure of ''visarpa'' made up of ''musta'' (Cyperus rotundus linn), ''nimba'' (Azadirachta indica) and ''patola'' (Trichosanthes dioica Roxb) or ''chandana'' (Santalum album linn) and utpal (Nymphaea nouchali) or ''sariva'' (Hemidesmus indicus), ''amalaki'' (Emblica officinalis), ''ushira'' (Vetiveria zizanioidis Linn) and ''musta'' (Cyperus rotundus linn).

</div></div>

The ''mahatikta ghritam'' indicated in ''paittika kustha'' should also be given by the intelligent physician for the alleviation of ''visarpa''.

Line 943: Line 1,016:

==== Formulations for ''dosha'' situated in ''shakha'' and modes of blood letting ====

+

Line 973: Line 1,048:

+

</div></div>

If ''dosha'' in ''shakha'' (body elements) vitiate the blood then ''raktamokshana'' should be administered at first. The physician should use ''vishana'' (deer horn) in ''vata'' dominance, ''jalauka'' (Hirudinea medicinalis) in ''pitta'' dominance and ''alabu'' (lagenaria siceraria) in ''kapha'' dominance for blood letting or physician should perform ''siravyadha'' (blood letting through vein) promptly from the adjacent vein to the affected part, without which ''rakta kleda'' (putrifying blood content) gives rise to decomposed skin, flesh and ligaments. [68-70]

==== External applications ====

After the body is cleansed internally (systemic) and morbid ''dosha'' remains in the skin and flesh (external tissues), or ''dosha'' morbidity is little, the external treatment to be carried out will now be described.

</div></div>

The patient should avoid the ''vidahi'' (that causes burning) and ''viruddha'' (mutually contradictory or incompatible) diet, day sleep, anger, exercise, exposure to sun heat, fire and fast winds.[115]

==== General guidelines of treatment ====

</div></div>

Of these measures, predominantly ''sheeta'' (cool) measures are prescribed in ''pitta'' dominant condition, ''ruksha'' in ''kapha'' dominant condition and ''snigdha'' in ''vata'' dominant condition of ''visarpa''.

Line 1,640: Line 1,731:

==== Treatment of ''granthi visarpa'' ====

Line 1,898: Line 1,991:

+

</div></div>

The ''granthi visarpa'', on inspection is predominant in ''rakta pitta''; the physician experienced in timely management should treat the case with ''rukshana'' (de-oleation), ''langhana'' (lightening therapy), ''seka'' (affusion), and ''pradeha'' (external application) of ''panchavalka, siramoksha'' (blood letting), ''jalauka'' (leech therapy), ''vamana'' (emesis therapy), ''virechana'' (purgation therapy) and ''kashaya- tikta'' (astringent and bitter) ghee preparations.

The line of treatment of ''granthi'' should be applied for the treatment of ''kaphaja galganda''.

==== Importance of ''raktamokshana'' in ''visarpa'' ====

यानीहोक्तानि कर्माणि विसर्पाणां निवृत्तये |

If all the therapeutic measures described here as curative of ''visarpa'' be put on one side and ''raktamokshana'' on other, they will be found equal.
