Three-fold classification
'''Three-fold classification'''
1. [[Dosha]] specific features (dosha samashraya): The sign and symptoms of the disease that arise due to interactions of [[dosha]] with [[dushya]] (dosha-dushyasammurchana) are the [[dosha]] specific features of a disease. These are often exhibited in the early stages of disease and indicative of the commencement of pathogenesis of the disease.

2. Specific features (vishistha rupa): These are the special clinical features of the disease. These indicate the specificity of the pathology. It is representative of the sub-variant of a disease occurring. The clinical features of [[vata]] dominant [[jwara]], [[pitta]] dominant [[jwara]], [[kapha]] dominant [[jwara]] etc. are specific features. [Su.Sa. Nidana Sthana 1/1]<ref name=Susruta/>

Another classification is based on the curability and severity of the disease.
