Questions and answers
How does the text tell vatabasti apart from mutratita?
In vatabasti, vata aggravated by suppressing urine closes the bladder outlet, so urine is retained with pain in the bladder and lower abdomen; in mutratita, urine that was held back will not come when wanted, or comes only a little at a time with straining and pain.
