If you were injured and needed something amputated, they would literally pull out a rusty, bloody hacksaw (no exaggerations here), put a stick in your mouth, tell you to bite, and say a prayer for you. The cutting then started, and if you survived the shock of having your limbs slowly gnawed off, you usually died from lockjaw, tetanus, plague, or some other highly lethal disease before you reached the age of 30.
However, the wealthy class had far better ways of dealing with the wounded, as they controlled the local apothecaries (potion shops), which usually dealt in items containing aloe or other healing plants. If you were gravely ill and suffereing, one need only slip a bit of poison (arsenic, cyanide, mandrake, belladonna, etc) and you would quickly (not always painlessly) be relieved of your suffering, forever.
