The normal site of ''pitta'' production in GI tract is ''pachyamanashaya'' which can be considered as a part of small intestine up to the level of caecum. However, impediment of ''snehabasti'' by ''pitta'' is probably a condition wherein vimarga-gamana (movement of pitta in improper direction) of pitta occurs which can be correlated with inflammation of colon due to any reason. If hot basti is given in already existing inflammation then it may lead to increase in symptoms. Thus, treatment is targeted to cure this acute inflammation. Hence sweet and bitter drugs are employed as they have pitta alleviating properties.
