Pittaj Grahani is Ulcerative Colitis according to Ayurveda; this disease is due to imbalanced and vitiated Pitta Dosha with disturbed vata dosha.

When our lifestyle is disturbed and we increase the consumption of food which aggravates Pitta it starts damaging rakta dhatu (blood tissue) and mamsa dhatu (muscle tissue), that leads to formation of Ama.
