sanskrit

If the mother is afflicted with any disease at this puerperal stage, then the condition becomes either difficult to cure or incurable because her body has suffered throughout pregnancy and parturition; because of providing nourishment for growth and development of fetus as well as discharges of blood and kleda during parturition she is vulnerable to doshic afflictions and various diseases.It is therefore important for a weak mother, or a mother afflicted with sickness to be specifically treated with massages, oil anointments, warm baths, food and drink prepared with drugs that are bhautika (alleviators of evil spirits), and of jivaniya, brimhaniya, madhura and vatahar classes of medications.
