अग्निकर्म should be done after removing Meda from the site.
Bhagvaan Nimi advocates removal of Meda in following way:
The person should be made to stand upright.
Meda should be surgically removed from posterior part of leg above ankle joint.The site should be approximately at the level of length of ones own foot.
Agnikarma should be done after removal of Meda.

The length from the tip of the nose to ankle joint should be noted.
One eighth of the distance should be marked from the ankle joint.
One Aksha (10 gm) Maamsa should be removed
