| Unexpected or unpurified
blood, inspite of use of pungent drugs by a puerperal
woman having dry (absence of unctuousness) body, gets
localised by vayu in the uterus or the excreted blood is
retained by vayu in the uterus.
This retained blood produces a glandular structure in
any site amongst infra-umbilical region, flanks, bladder
, bladder-neck (hypo gastric) region. Due to this
structure there is severe pain in umbilical and bladder
regions, abdomen and cardiac region as well as
headache.
In the pakwasaya (large bowel) region there is severe
pain as if needles are being torn or perforated.
Flatulence and retention of urine also occur.
Treatment for Prolapse of
Uterus - Yonibhramsa
In the case of uterovaginal prolapse or inversion of
uterus, the yoni (uterus and vaginal canal) is replaced
to its proper place, by an expert woman.
After this replacement repeated fomentation and filling
or tampon of oil prepared with the paste of asoka,
rohini, barhisa, usira, priyangu and devadaru should be
given. Drinking of wine by the puerperal woman having
undergone normal or difficult labour is like nectar.
Edema (sotha)
Edema (sotha) may be generalised (sarvanga) or
localised such as of one extremity or leg (ekanga). The
leg edema can be equated with whiteleg or
phlegmasia-alba-dolens.
The main cause of sutika roga is vayu and hence
treatment should be given on the basis of aggravation of
doshas (especially for suppressing the vayu) and
increasing the strength of the woman.
The medicines commonly used are Dashmool decoction and
Prataplankeswar rasa.
