Yes! religion definetly affected medieval medicine. Monks believed that god was punishing people, making them ill and to suffer for being a bad person. They also believed that only god could cure the illness/disease that god, himself had given to these people. Monks and nuns would Mildley treat the ill people with natural remadies, such as herbs and crushed up plants to create medicine.
Hope that answered your question, im 14 and i have got an exam next week about black death, wondered if you knew anything about 'How women contributed to care of the sick in the middle ages' ? cheers. :)

∙ 12y agoNot much. some towns were so dumb that if someone had a brain problem, they would tak out the brain and rub it in salt, then put it back in. That person dies. If a kight comes back in battle and an arrow is lodged in his ankle, they sometimes may cut thee whole leg off. The knight dies. If you lived in the middle ages, well, hope you don't live in one of those towns.
