It applies on the one hand to persons who show a preponderance of the 'air' humor. On the other, it is the principle of motility (g.yo ba) and thus applies to 'pressure' in every sense of the English word. 'Air' diseases are especially common in intellectuals. Kong-sprul/1 6: General conditions for the arising of 'air' disorders — an overactive mind; impurities in the blood' diarrhea & vomitting; too much serious thought; eating unnutritious (bcud med) food; thirst and coldness. Air diseases often lead or come at the end of other diseases, so close observation is necessary.

Although the pulse may be slow or fast, it is difficult to press down, like a coracel on top of the water. Sometimes the pulse settles down a little. The urine is thin and bluish, with lots of bubbles. The smell, taste and vapour are very little. If a fever is beginning, it has an orange color, but if it is clear and free of sediment, it is a rlung disorder. The tongue is red and dry with little bumps protruding slightly on the sides.
