Jiva teamAyurveda speaks of a condition known as Kikkisa, which describes linear demarcations on the surface of a pregnant woman’s skin, similar to stretch marks. It is caused by the imbalance of Kapha and Pitta, the former being responsible for the itching sensation while the latter causes a burning sensation on the skin. to upload
