The Granthi which are suppurated burst out with secretions and get pacified.
These Granthi vanish and appear repeatedly. This is called as अपची.
अपची is Saadhya Vyaadhi.

Difference between अपची and Gan`d`amaalaa:
In Gan`d`amaalaa, Granthi are manifested in style of garland. Whereas in अपची the manifestation of Granthi is not in style of garland.

Sampraapti:

The causative Dosha are Vaata, Pitta and Kapha.
The involved Dhaatu is Medas.
If these Granthi are manifested on Vaksha, Kakshaa, Manyaa and Gala, then it is called as अपची.
They appear in the form of garland around Kan`t`ha, Hridaya, Hanu, Sandhi.
Therefore, Gan`d`amaalaa can be known by the symptoms of अपची.
This Gan`d`amaalaa is called as अपची when it is pacifying and appearing repeatedly like Doorvaa.

अपची is Asaadhya if it is associated with:

Peenasa
Paars`hvas`hoola
कास
ज्वर
