What the text says
Each statement reports the source, with its chapter, page and verse. Traditional descriptions are not presented as proven medical facts.
Causes3
The text says that when a person who has taken an emetic or purgative ignorantly holds back the coming urge of vomiting or purging, the doshas move toward the heart and cause pain there.
The text says that a very sharp enema pressed in forcefully in a patient with aggravated vata causes hridayopasarana: the provoked doshas go toward the heart and attack it.
A footnote reports that another text ascribes hridayopasarana to giving a sharp niruha enema, and to giving an anuvasana enema to one with vata.
Signs and symptoms2
The person bites the tongue, grinds the teeth, is distressed by heat, stares upward with wide eyes and, becoming very weak, faints.
After an enema it brings at once fainting, insanity, burning, heaviness of the body, salivation and various other troubles.
