Mūtrasaṅga (मूत्रसङ्ग) refers to “retention of urine”, mentioned in verse 4.2 of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā (Sūtrasthāna) by Vāgbhaṭa.—Accordingly, “by the stoppage of the downward wind (are caused) visceral induration, secretory stasis, pain, weariness, retention of wind, urine [viz., mūtrasaṅga], and feces, impairment of vision and digestion, and heart-disease”.

According to verse 4.20-22.—“[...] from (suppressed) sperm (result) its outflow, pubic pain, cutaneous swelling, fever, throbbing of the heart, retention of urine [viz., mūtrasaṅga], racking in the limbs, swelling of the testicles, gravel, and impotence. Cock, arrack, rice, enema, inunction, bathing, milk prepared with bladder-cleansing (substances, and) lovely women one shall turn to in this case”.

Note: Mūtrasaṅga (“retention of urine”) has been translated by cku ’gags (“retained urine”)—(the instrumental chus in NP is obscure and no doubt corrupt).

context information

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
