उष्णक्लान्तस्य सहसा शीताम्भो भजतस्तृषम् । ऊष्मा रुद्धो गतः कोष्ठं यां कुर्यात्पित्तजैव सा ॥ ५५ ॥

Trishna occurs in the person who has become exhausted by exposure to heat (sunlight, fire etc.), taking bath in or drinking cold water immediately; by this the heat obstructed (from coming out) gets into the abdomen and causes thirst. It is born from (aggravation of) Pitta itself (so has the same symptoms as enumerated under Pittaja).
