In Ayurveda, a comprehensive description is given for abdominal swellings. While the generalized swellings have been described under the heading of udara roga (ascites), localized inflammatory swellings are described under the heading of vidradhi. However, there are other varieties of localized abdominal lumps which are non inflammatory in nature and are considered primarily under the heading of gulma.
