Pain is an Unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with, actual or potential tissue damage”. When we are to understand the definition and its meaning, it comes as it can be a physical experience as well as a psychological experience and is always associated with actual or potential tissue damage. This is the word-to-word meaning of the definition. Pain is always an individual experience that a person experiences and understands in the journey of life. Shoola has been described to be of 8 types, viz.- vataj, pittaj, kaphaj, vata-pittaj, pitta-kaphaj, vata-kaphaj, sannipataj, aamaj. All the causes and symptoms are like the aggravating factors of the doshas, also, this is to be noted that these types are due to the dominance of Vata. Shoola, as we have seen in detail in the above sections is a type of symptom as well as can be a completely independent disorder. In order to avoid unwanted side effects of modern medicine, Ayurveda offers the patient a wider range of therapy like Basti, Nasya, Shirodhara, Snehan, swedan and has fewer adverse effects.
