How do you treat a fire burns without a hospital in the Oregon trail?

The pioneers used lard on the burns. If the burns were really bad most often the person died. There were a lot of dangers on the journey and burns were the least of them. People died in flooded rivers, falling off of mountain passes, disease, wounds of various sorts, and childbirth. The women and children walked beside the wagon the whole way and the children would collect buffalo chips for the evening fires.

In the 1840s how could you treat someone with dysentery on the Oregon Trail?

In the 1800's on the Oregon Trail a person who caught dysentery was in trouble from the start. Until Gregory Colloni of Italy, a pioneer on the trail, mixed leaves from a pine tree with water and egg white. The patients tried the potion and it worked successfully. Mr. Colloni is one of the unknown heroes of the world. If not for him, many more people would have died on the Oregon trail.


How did they treat rabie animals on the Oregon trail?

If you mean animals with rabies they would be shot. I doubt they ran into many animals with rabies. I have read numerous diary entries written by people who were pioneers and not one mentioned animals with rabies. They wrote about dust, disease, death, birth, flooded wagons, the mountains and snow.
