Inflammation is an important pathology that includes tumor (swelling) as a cardinal sign. Further, classifications of ''shotha'' (swelling/distension) based on cause, predominance of ''dosha'', and prognosis as per site of swelling are explained. Principles of identification of new diseases are also elucidated. The normal functions of ''dosha'' and their importance in disease conditions is emphasized. Thus, the chapter is fundamental in knowing disease.

Causes of agantuja shotha (exogenous swelling): Common etiological factors of agantuja shotha include chhedana (excision), bhedana (incision), kshanana (churning of bones), bhanjana (breaking), pichhana (excess squeezing), utprashana (grinding), prahaara (hitting), vadha (stroking), bandhan (binding), veshtana (twisting), vyadhana (piercing), peedana (pressing) etc. In addition to these traumas some other factors such as coming in contact with the juice of flowers or fruits of some plants such as bhallātaka (Semicarpus anacardium), atmagupta (Mucuna pruriens) or getting bitten or stung by certain insects or touching irritant leaves, climbers, shrubs, sweat or urine of poisonous animals or even coming in physical contact with them, or getting injured by their teeth, horns and nails, or exposure to marine or poisonous air, or exposure to excess cold or burns may also result in agantuja shotha.

Exogenous swellings can be primarily identified by characteristic signs of injury and localization. After some time, they become similar to endogenous swellings [due to vitiation of dosha]. They are treated by bandage, mantra (holy chants), antidotes, local application of medicines, fomentation, cooling measures etc. [5]

Nija shotha i.e. endogenous swelling could be caused due to any of the following factors:
Iatrogenic factors: Improper administration of snehana (oleation), swedana (sudation), vamana (therapeutic emesis), virechana (therapeutic purgation), asthapana basti (non-unctuous enema), anuvasana basti (unctuous enema), shirovirechana (nasal errhines) and/or samsarjana krama (dietetic regimen after purification therapy).
