Tumburvadi and Hingvadi Churna

चिकित्सितमिदं कुर्याच्छुद्धवातापतानके ।
संसृष्टदोषे संसृष्टं चूर्णयित्वा कफान्विते ॥ ३५ ॥
तुम्बुरूण्यभया हिङ्गु पौष्करं लवणत्रयम् ।
यवक्वाथाम्बुना पेयं हृत्पार्श्वार्त्यपतन्त्रके ॥ ३६ ॥
हिङ्गु सौवर्चलं शुण्ठी दाडिमं साम्लवेतसम् ।
पिबेद्वा श्लेष्मपवनहृद्रोगोक्तं च शस्यते ॥ ३७ ॥
This is the line of treatment in Apatanaka produced by suddhavata (Vata not associated with other dosha).  When there is association of other doshas, when associated with Kapha, tumburūṇi – Zanthoxylum alatum, abhayā – Terminalia chebula, hiṅgu – Ferula asafoetida, pauṣkaraṃ – pauskarabija – seeds of Inula racemosa, lavanatrayam (Saindhava – rock salt, Souvarchala – black salt and Bida salt), should be powdered and consumed with decoction of Hordeum vulgare.  When there is pain in the region of the heart and flanks and in apatantraka hiṅgu – powder of Ferula asafoetida, sauvarcalaṃ – black salt, śuṇṭhī – Zingiber officinale, dāḍimaṃ – Punica granatum and amlavetasam – Garcinia pedunculata (may be consumed with decoction of yava) should be consumed so also those mentioned in the treatment of heart diseases caused by kapha and vata together (chapter of cikitsa sthana) are suitable.

तैलद्रोण्यां च शयनमान्तरोऽत्र सुदुस्तरः ॥ ३८ ॥

Dhanuskhambha

विवर्णदन्तवदनः स्रस्ताङ्गो नष्टचेतनः ।
प्रस्विद्यंश्च धनुष्कम्भी दशरात्रं न जीवति ॥ ३९ ॥
वेगेष्वतो अन्यथा जीवेन् मन्देषु विनतो जडः ।
खञ्जः कुणिः पक्षहतः पङ्गुलो विकलोऽथवा ॥ ४० ॥

अवबाहौ हितं नस्यं स्नेहश्चोत्तरभक्तिकः ॥ ४४ ॥
Oleation and purgative therapy accompanied with oleation are the treatment for hemiplegia for loss of movement of the arm, nasal medication is beneficial and also oleation after meals.

शाकैरलवणैः शस्ताः किञ्चित्तैलैर्जलैः शृतैः ॥ ४६ ॥
जाङ्गलैरघृतैर्मांसैर्मध्वम्भोऽरिष्टपायिनः ।
वत्सकादिर्हरिद्रादिर्वचादिर्वा ससैन्धवः ॥ ४७ ॥
आढ्यवाते सुखाम्भोभिः पेयः षड्धरणोऽथवा ।
For rigidity/loss of movement of the thighs neither oleation nor purifactory therapies are beneficial because of the predominance of Kapha,  undigested metobolities and medas.  Skilful treatments to reduce the same are administered.  Measures to produce dryness inside should be done using Hordeum vulgare, śyāmāka – Echinochloa esculenta and kodravāḥ – Paspalum scrobiculatum. Vegetables without salt (or very little of) and with very little of oil are beneficial which are boiled in water,  soup of meat of animals of desert–like regions without addition of ghee,  honey water and arista (fermented decoction) are suitable as food and drink; Decoction of herbs of vatsakadi,  haridradi or vacadi gana (chapter 15 of sutrasthana)  added with rock salt,  or saddharana curna (chapter 21 of cikitsa sthana of asthangasangraha) should be consumed,  along with warm water  in adhyavata (urusthambha).
