Study question (generated from the text)

A poison weakened by age, fire, lightning, sun, frost, rain or antidotes that lingers in the body and later, roused by unsuitable conditions, vitiates the dhātus.

Detailed answer

When roused it causes vomiting, loss of appetite, thirst, fever, burning, breathlessness, cough, intermittent fever, swelling, insanity, diarrhoea and abdominal disease, and in its various forms leanness, drying up, hernia or scrotal enlargement, excessive sleep, bloating and loss of semen. The Dūṣīviṣāri agada is given for it.
