ग्रहणीरोगे The pulse in chronic diarrhoea
पादे च हंससदृशी करे मण्डूसंप्लवा । तस्याग्नेर्मन्दता देहे त्वथवा ग्रहणीगदः ।। वाताद्वक्रगता नाड़ी चपला पित्तसम्भवे ।
कफे स्थिरामिमां विद्यावाडिकां ग्रहणीगदे ।। 32 ।। If the pulse of a person in the foot moves like a swan and that (pulse) in the hand moves like a frog, then it should be understood that he has got slowness of digestion (agnimandya) or disease of grahani (grahanigada) in the body. The pulse is crooked in vatajagrahani (chronic diarrhoea caused by derangement of bodily humour-vata), it is unsteady or restless in pittajagrahani (chronic diarrhoea caused by bodily humour-kaph). (V. 32)
भेदेन शान्ता ग्रहणीगदेन ।
