Answer

Study question (generated from the text)

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.

Detailed answer

Both belong to the urinary obstruction (mutraghata) group of verses 39 to 52, several of which are traced to holding back the urge to urinate.
