Among them, Aruna is caused by Vata, Udumbara, Arshya, Jihva, Kapala, and Kakana are caused by Pitta, while Pundarika and Dadru leprosy are caused by Kapha. The severity of these increases progressively due to their penetration into deeper tissues, making them incurable.

sanskrit

Here, the Aruna lesions caused by Vata are thin and spread out, characterized by slight swelling and associated with loss of sensation. The Udumbara lesions caused by Pitta resemble the color of ripe Udumbara fruit, while the Rishyajihva lesions are dark and have a characteristic appearance. Kapala lesions appear dark and are similar to a black bowl, while the Kakana lesions are very dark and resemble Kakana fruit. Among these, the four types exhibit common features such as burning, itching, and heaviness due to the presence of worms, indicating a shared nature. Pundarika lesions, caused by Kapha, resemble the color of Pundarika leaves and the Tamra flowers. The common features among both types include prominent rings, itching, and prolonged duration of lesions.
