Duścikitsya (दुश्चिकित्स्य) refers to “those diseases (of hawks) difficult to cure”, according to the Śyainika-śāstra: a Sanskrit treatise dealing with the divisions and benefits of Hunting and Hawking, written by Rājā Rudradeva (or Candradeva) in possibly the 13th century.—Accordingly, [while discussing the treatment of hawks]: “Inflammation is produced in the face or in the eyes owing to irregularity in food or drink, or to bile; when the swelling suppurates the case becomes hard to deal with. If the disease is caused by the excess of phlegm, it becomes difficult to cure (duścikitsya). [...]”.
