Classification of FeverFever Menu
Classification
If you carefully examine the above (two) categories, you will observe that cause of each type of fever lies in the vitiation and imbalance of one humour or the other, or else there are mixed dyscrasias indicating mixed symptoms. Whatever be the cause and type of fever, there always exist clear symptoms in each variety from which the type of fever can be ascertained. Categorization has been done to simplify the matter, otherwise such divisions are simply of academic interest. The readers are not expected to burden their memories by complicated names and types . General awareness is so great that even a layman knows what are the symptoms of Malaria, Typhoid, Mumps, Diphtheria, Dengue fevers. He is well informed and cautious, his approach is also not casual, as he can cure most common types of fever even with the help of domestic remedies or commonly used Ayurvedic medicines. Some medicines form part of his daily life and in general situation, he can manage the problem himself, as he is still fully convinced of the efficacy of Ayurvedic preparations. He is fully conversant with commonly used ingredients which form an essential part of his kitchen. Use & storage of ayurvedic medicine is a part of his culture and he has been grandma's prescriptions since his childhood. Such a vast knowledge gradually descended on his recollective memory and he imbibed all the relevent points to his advantage. Most of the ayurvedic medicines and prescriptions have been handed down from one generation to another and the process shall continue unabated. A device or method which becomes an integral part of tradition and practice does not disappear so easily and quickly - and this is more true in case of Ayurvedia which can be compared with very negligible number of systems of ancient and traditional medicine. Fever, Coryza, Catarrh, influenza, Cough, cold are cured by many persons with branded medicines and time-tested recipes and prescriptions and ordinary fever is no exception either. Severity and duration determine the classification of each type of fever. Sometimes, mainly due to ignorance, the disease gets prolonged and mixed symptoms emerge which create a confused situation or jumbled up symptoms. Complicated cases, or more particularly emergent cases, ought not to be handed by a layman. Always seek guidance and treatment from a qualified Ayurvedic Physician.
