State of the Body

According to Unani Physicians, states of the body are grouped under three heads:
Sehat (Health) in which all the functions of the body are carried on normally.

Maraz (Disease) is the opposite of Health in which one or more functions or forms of the bodily organs are at fault.
La Sehat La Maraz (Neither health nor disease), there is neither complete health nor disease as is the case of old people or those who are convalescing.

Diseases are of two types
(1) Maraz-e-Mufrad (singular disease)
(2) Maraz-e-Murakkab(Complex disease)

A singular disease is one that completes its course without complications and a complex disease is opposite of it. A singular disease may manifest itself in three forms:

(1) Su-e-Mizaj (Dyscrasia)
(2) Amraz-e-Tarkib (Structural diseases)
(3) Amraz-e-Tafarruq-e-Ittisal (Diseases of solution of Unity).

Further divisions of diseases have been mentioned according to different conditions in Ibn Sina`s Al-Qanun.
