| Kshara basti (gomūtrayukta basti) in case of kapha-vāta and ksheera basti in pitta-vāta is recommended. Raktāvr̥ta vāta is similar to uttāna-vātarakta and treatment is accordingly same. Rakta āvr̥ta vāta is one of the phases of vātarakta. Thus raktamokshan and basti cikitsā which is useful in vātarakta is also helpful in rakta āvr̥ta vāta. | | Kshara basti (gomūtrayukta basti) in case of kapha-vāta and ksheera basti in pitta-vāta is recommended.

− | Prameha samprapti mentioned in Sutrasthān 17th chapter explains kapha, pitta, meda and mānsa which when increased causes āvarana of vāta. Therefore, pramehagna cikitsā is helpful in meda āvr̥ta vāta and also in mansāvr̥ta vāta. Hence in mansāvr̥ta vāta the pipilika iva sanchar (tingling sensation) reduces, if prameha is treated. Similarly, in obesity, medasāvr̥ta vāta (vata obstructed by excess meda) (Ca.Su. 21/5) and meda and mānsa ativridhi [Ca.Su.21/9] is observed. These conditions are best treated on the principles of management of prameha, sthaulya associated with vitiated vata. Therapeutic emesis to expel out the intoxicated food in stomach is advised in condition of annavrita vata ( vata obstructed by food). Pāchana and deepan helps in digestion and also pacifies vāta. | + | Prameha samprapti mentioned in Sutrasthān 17th chapter explains kapha, pitta, meda and mānsa which when increased causes āvarana of vāta.

| Hot foementation reduces urethral pressure. A study done by Shafik A. showed that sitting in warm water helps in micturition which seems to be initiated by reflex internal urethral sphincter relaxation. A thermo sphincter reflex is likely to be involved. | | Hot foementation reduces urethral pressure.
