श्लीपद — ज्योतिःशास्त्रम्
This Shlipada astrology chapter gives one chart rule: Mars, Mercury and Venus together. The text paints a restless, bold, talkative person.
Classical view, not medical advice.
It says to do the rite of each of the three planets.
The English below is our translation from the Sanskrit.
Shlipada (elephantiasis) - the stars
अथ ज्योतिश्शास्त्राभिप्रायेण श्लीपदरोगस्य हेतुमाह तत्प्रतीकारं च ।
Next, as the astrology texts say, the text gives the cause of elephantiasis, and its remedy.

अकुलीनो विकलांगश्चपलो धृष्टश्च जायते मनुजः ।मुखरो नित्यं श्लीपदी कुजबुधभृगुनंदनैः सहितैः ॥
A man may be born of no good family, with a defective body, restless, bold and always talkative. He may get elephantiasis when Mars, Mercury and Venus are together.
