Purva roopam is a new thing according to medical sciences. These are the prodromal symptoms which a disease presents during incubation period. These can be said the mild symptoms which can be seen in people before the actual presentation of ant disease. The knowledge of purva roopam may give us the hints regarding the disease but at this stage it can not be diagnosed that the disease may manifest by itself or may be subsided. As mentioned earlier also that these indications of the of the future diseases can only be understood by attentive patient and a good physician. If we take an example of rain, cool breeze, black clouds, thunder and lightening may be considered as the purva roopam of or the premonitory symptoms of rains. But after all these symptoms one can never be sure that it will rain in future or not.
