Ayurveda classifies Galaayu based on the predominance of dosha and pain.
- Vata- Pittaja
Here Galaayu is based on the dominance of Vata and Pitta dosha in the body. Symptoms of Vata- Pittaja Galaayu are Toda (pain) and Doha (fever).
- Kapha-Raktaja
Kapha-Raktaja Galaayu occurs due to the dominance of Kapha dosha in the body. Major symptoms are Trishna, Shvasa and Kasa, and sthoola shotha (large tonsil swelling with Kapha).
Vata-Pitta and Kapha-Raktaja are the two Ayurvedic classifications of the Galaayu (Tonsillitis).
