कृमीन् बहुविधाकारान् करोति विविधाश्रयान् | आमपक्वाशये तेषां कफविड्जन्मनां पुनः | धमन्यां रक्तजानां च प्रसवः प्रायशः स्मृतः ||६||

sanskrit

The worms assume various forms and take shelter in different parts of the body. They are produced in the stomach and intestines (in the undigested or partially digested state), and are often known to originate from Kapha or blood, particularly in the veins. These worms, when they proliferate, lead to diseases associated with these doshas.
