स्नेहस्वेदादिकस्तस्मिन्निष्टो वातहरः क्रमः । अभ्यज्य नवनीतेन श्वेतलोध्रं प्रलेपयेत् ॥११॥

In cases of excessive scraping, therapeutic measures such as oleation (snehan), sudation/fomentation (swedan), and other regimens that specifically pacify Vata (vāta-hara) are recommended. A piece of shweta lodhra (Symplocos racemosa) is anointed thoroughly with fresh butter and then coated completely with a thick paste made from the roots of eranda (Ricinus communis).
