==Lung – Phupphusa==
On the left inferior aspect of the heart, ‘Plīhā’ (spleen) is situated and on its left side there is ‘Phupphusa’ (Left lung). On right side, the corresponding organs situated are ‘Yakrt’ (Liver) and ‘Kloma’ (Right lung) respectively (Su. Śā. 4/31). Suśruta has used two different terms to mean left and right lungs- ‘Phupphusa’ for left lung and ‘Kloma’ for right lung. This conclusion is drawn because of the fact that the term ‘Phupphusa’ has not been used in its plural form.<ref name="Lung Functions – in PhupphusaGeneral"/>
