Acharya Sushrutha has explained ten Adhishthanas of Antarvidradhi, among these Yakrit Vidradhi is also mentioned. Acharya Charaka has explained Vidradhi under Raktavaha Sroto Vikara in which Rakta Dushti and Paaka takes place predominantly. In modern concepts, one can precisely correlate abscess with Vidradhi. The extremely deranged and aggravated Vata, Pitta, Kapha resorting to the bone and vitiating Tvaka (skin) Rakta (blood), Mamsa (flesh) and Meda (fat) of person (with their own specific properties) gradually give rise to deep seated, painful, round or extended Shopha (swelling) is called Vidradhi.[1] It is of 6 types: Vataj, Pittaj, Kaphaj, Sannipataj, Kshataj And Raktaj.
