Susruta Samhita - Mandhata Global

96 THE SUSIIRUTA SAMHITA. [Chap. XIV.
an excruciating pain in the ulcerated region of the organ
is called SonitaLrvudam. The vegetation of a fleshy
tumour on the penis (incidental to a blow on the organ
to alleviate the pain of inserting the hairs of the Suka
insect into its body), is called Mainsairvudam. A sup-
puration as well as sloughing of the penis attended with
different kinds of pain which severally mark the de-
ranged Vayu, Pittam and Kapham is called Matnsa-
pSLka. This type is caused by the concerted action
of the deranged Vayu, Pittam and Kapham. 15-18.
The specific symptoms of a Tridoshaja Vidradhi
as described before (Chap.ix.) mark the one which affects
the penis (owing to an injudicious application of the
highly poisonous irritant Suka to the organs) The
disease is called Vidradhi. A process of general sup-
puration and sloughing of the organ marks the type
which is produced by the application of a black Suka or
one of a variegated coloured insect of the same species.
The type is called Tilakailaka, and should be regarded
as Tridoshaja one. 19-21.
Prognosis: —Of the above enumerated malig-
nant diseases of the penis, those known as Mansarvuda,
Mansapaka, Vidradhi and Tilakalak shoulda be deemed
as incurable. 22.
Thus ends the fourteenth Chapter of the Nidana Sthanam in the
Sus'ruta Samhita which treats of Nidanam of different types of S'ukadohsa.
