Classical view, not medical advice.
यमदूतैर्महादेवि नरके नाम कर्दमे ॥
By the order of Yama (the god of death), O Goddess, his messengers threw him into a hell. It is called Kardama (mud). He stayed there sixty thousand…
नरकान्निर्गतो देवि व्याघ्रयोनिस्ततोऽभवत् ॥
Coming out of hell, he was born a tiger. Then he was a buffalo, and then he reached human birth.
ऋक्षे पुनर्वसौ देवि तृतीयचरणे वरे ॥
He was born in the star Punarvasu, in the good third quarter, O Goddess. By the fruit of his morning baths, he came from a royal family.
