A disorder in which the rakta is seen flowing out of the body is said to be rakta pitta, now, this flow of rakta outside the body is not normal and is seen without any cuts or wounds. Rakta pitta can be classified into various categories that can be according to doshaj involvement and on the types of blood getting out. Charakacharya has described it in the chapter immediately after Jwara as it arises due to the result of Santapa, which is Pratyatma Lakshana of Jwara.
