[Patient’s care after purification therapy] A person, after purification therapies like vamana and virechana, becomes durbala(weak), krisha(emaciated), has alpagni (decreased digestive power), mukta sandhanabandhan (the joints of body become loose), whose vata (flatus), mala (stool), mutra (urine), kapha and pitta (body doshas) have been evacuated, visceras, gastro-intestinal tract, urinary and gall bladder and other organ feel like empty.
The body becomes free from vitiated dosha (body humor), dhatu (tissues) and malas (wastes). Not able to tolerate any type of therapeutic measures due to excessive weakness, the patient should be protected like "a freshly hatched egg",
like a brimful pot of oil or like cattle that are protected by a cowherd with a stick in his hand. The physician should carefully protect the patient from the unwholesome effects of diet and lifestyle, etc.
