Answer

Study question (generated from the text)

Because diseases burnt with fire are destroyed from the root and do not recur, and diseases that kshara, medicine or knife cannot cure yield to it.

Detailed answer

Even so, fire is not applied to ligaments, bones and joints, and it is avoided in summer and autumn unless an urgent disease requires it, in which case counter-seasonal cooling measures are taken first.
