Chardi Roga – Vomiting: Ayurveda Explanation, Types, Symptoms

Article by Dr Raghuram Y.S. MD(Ayu)
Vomiting is called as Chardi Roga in Ayurveda. Chardi is an act of expulsion of gastric contents.

Chardi as vega

Chardi as vega Chardi is also mentioned as ‘adhaaraneeya vega’, a natural urge expressed by the body. This means to tell that we should not control or suppress vomiting because it is a process in which the body is trying to throw out the unnecessary contents, contaminants and toxins out of the body, which would otherwise prove to be harmful when left alone in the body. Stomach identifies the incompatible foods and rejects them in the form of expulsion through vomiting. Chardi as roga or disease – Chardi is a disease when the pathology is head by the vitiated doshas. Even here too, if the patient is strong enough, the vomiting process should be allowed until the unwanted things have been ejected out of the system. When comes to treating vomiting, the pathology should be addressed and treated only after the unnecessary things have been thrown out of the body.

Classification

Classification of Chardi –
Chardi is classified as:
Primary Chardi Here the vomiting is caused by the vitiation of doshas and the disease will have its own pathological process. The treatment is oriented towards controlling the morbid doshas and breaking the samprapti (pathological process) of the disease. Thus, the Primary Chardi will have its own set of Nidanas or aetiological factors (causative factors), own samprapti (pathogenesis), own set of Purvarupa (premonitory symptoms), Rupa or Lakshanas (Signs and symptoms), upadravas (complications) and chikitsa (treatment protocol).

This type of Chardi again is of 5 sub-types, they are –

  • Vataja Chardi – Vomiting caused by vitiated Vata
  • Pittaja Chardi – Vomiting caused by vitiated Pitta
  • Kaphaja Chardi – Vomiting caused by vitiated Kapha
  • Sannipataja Chardi – Vomiting caused by vitiation of all 3 doshas
  • Drustartha Samyogaja (Agantuja) Chardi – Vomiting caused due to consumption or sight or exposure to incompatible foods and things

Secondary Chardi – This type of Chardi is not manifested by itself. It is a part of yet another disease and is thus secondary to another primary disease. Thus secondary Chardi doesn’t have an independent existence. This chardi is dependent on the causative factors, pathogenesis and manifestation of another disease. This type of chardi occurs in the form of a premonitory symptom, symptom, complication or sign of bad prognosis of yet another disease. The treatment of this chardi is also not symptomatic. If the main disease which is causing vomiting is addressed, the vomiting comes down. Special and separate treatment for this type of Chardi is not needed unless it is a predominant symptom of the primary disease and needs special attention.

Pathogenesis:

Due to the above said factors, the person becomes debilitated and emaciated. In the process, the vata gets severely aggravated in the maha srotas (passages of food; gut) and in turn provokes the other doshas and contaminants in the gut. The vitiated vata pushes these doshas in an upward direction. While throwing the doshas in an upward direction, vayu causes provocation and disturbance in the stomach. The whole set of process causes vomiting producing sever pain in the region of heart.

Symptoms –

  • Hridaya peeda – pain in the heart or cardiac region
  • Parshwa peeda – pain in the flanks or sides of the chest
