Thus the etiology, premonitory symptoms, general and individual symptoms of eight types of udara, complications of udara, seriousness of the illness, prognosis, symptoms of stages of udara  as non accumulation and accumulation of fluid, and the specific as well as general treatment of udara  roga are described by the sage Punarvasu in this chapter of Chikitsa [195-196].

• Abnormalities of jatharagni (digestive power) leads to the morbid accumulation of the mala (dosha and excreta- waste) and in turn tend to cause multiple diseases and particularly udara roga.

• Affliction of prana vata, agni as well as apana vata are main culprits leading to accumulation of morbid dosha. This in turn obliterates the channels of sweda (sweat) and udaka (body fluid) tending upwards and downwards.

• All types of udara (enlargement of abdomen) are mostly due to tri discordance of dosha, hence treatment that alleviates all three dosha should be adapted in all types of udara.

Etiopathogenesis: Impairment of jatharāgni leads to morbidity of all the three dosha. Mala in the present context refers to morbid vāta, pitta and kapha, the metabolic bi-products formed during dhātu metabolism i.e. during tissue formation as well as the wastes like excreta1. Impairment of agni leads to excess formation of metabolic bi products (mala) and less formation of quality products. This leads to accumulation of the waste at micro-cellular circulation, which causes multiple diseases. More specifically, this accumulation of wastes at various visceral organs like liver, spleen etc. leads to distension of abdomen2.
