Its symptoms are: chills, fever with chills, heaviness, sleep, drowsiness, anorexia, sweet taste in the mouth, coating of the mouth, spitting, vomiting, lassitude, numbness, loss of digestive fire, and weakness; and in whichever region the visarpa spreads, that region is swollen, pale, not very red, accompanied by unctuousness, numbness, stiffness, and heaviness, with little pain, and is beset with white-pale blisters that suppurate with difficulty, are chronic, and have thick skin-coverings; when burst, it discharges a white, slimy, thread-like, thick, continuous, unctuous fluid; and subsequently it becomes covered with ulcers that are heavy, firm, spread out like a net, unctuous, with thick skin-coverings, and it becomes persistent; the nails, eyes, face, skin, urine, and stool are white; things described among its causes do not agree with him, while their opposites agree: this is śleṣmavisarpa.
