v4.c57.486

30 Mādhava regards viṣphoṭaka, pāmā and vicarcī as not belonging to the group of kṣudrarogas, as does Gayadāsa later (see Ḍalhaṇa ad Su.Ni.13.3, and Gayadāsa ad Su.Ni.13.18). Mādhava describes viṣphoṭaka in a separate chapter (53), as well as in the chapter on kuṣṭha (49.22); pāmā and vicarcikā are dealt with in the chapter on kuṣṭha (49.21–23ab); rakasā is absent from the *Mādhavanidāna*.
