The well-wishers of the patient come to seek an answer regarding the health of the patient when he is very weak. The health of the patient is analyzed by the birth chart when his birth details are available and by Prashna Kundali when the birth details are not available.

The Kendra house has a lot of significance in Yogas related to questions about the illness of a patient. This is due to the fact that the nature of doctor is analyzed through ascendant. The nature of the medicine is analyzed through the fourth house. The disease is analyzed through the seventh house and the health of the patient is analyzed through the tenth house.
