Commentary for Sukkah 51:9

רבא לטעמיה דאמר רבא מצטער פטור מן הסוכה והא אנן תנן חולין ומשמשיהם פטורים מן הסוכה חולה אין מצטער לא אמרי חולה הוא ומשמשיו פטורים מצטער הוא פטור משמשיו לא:

Rava follows his own reasoning, since Rava said: One who is in discomfort is exempt from the Sukkah. But have we not learned: Those who are sick and their attendants [are exempt from the mitzvah of the sukkah] One who is sick but not one who is merely in discomfort? I will explain: A sick person and his attendants are exempt, whereas he who is in discomfort is exempt, but not his attendants.

Rashi on Sukkah

One who is in discomfort. When the Sukkah is discomforting him.
