Basically if you were rich you would of go to a place which seems like a hospital in town and then they would check your urine and pooh and see if you have a problem or they can even cut one of your vain and let out your bad blood which is called blood-letting. Normally it is cheaper for the barbers to do it .
Monks and nuns contributed to the Middle Ages in many ways. One way was to care for the sick and poor. Another way was to build schools and teach at schools.
Bleeding out the illness, black powder and sweating it out.
In the middle ages there were a lot of Medical theories about the blood. If you got sick, it was often believed to be b/c of "bad blood". So to make people healthy, you had to get rid of the "bad blood". It was called blood letting, and there were different methods for this. Cupping was one, letting leeches suck was Another. So a steady stock of hungry leeches was a required tool for many medieval doctors. A leech collector would be the one who supplied the doctors with leeches.
Most of the protesters in the middle ages were peasants because they were sick of the way they were being treated. There were more of the peasants than anyone else so it made it easier for them to protest and eventually revolt.
Surgery wasn't done very much in the middle ages and if it was it was very crude. One reason that it wasn't done is that the Catholic church had laws against looking at a nude body or uncovering very much of the body, so doctors didn't understand the body and its parts very well. If a person got sick or hurt they usually died . When a man was wounded on the battle field he was left there to die and he died of his wounds.
nothing :)
The clergy attended to preaching, teaching, and caring for the sick. The clergy upheld the doctrines of the Catholic Church and gave stability to the society.
they would get sick
They would do something called "bleeding" out. Basically, they take a knife or sharp object and puncture the skin, letting the blood flow out. It was believed to take out the bacteria, and even though it sort of worked, it left patients more vulnerable (because they would get weak from losing a lot of blood) to getting even more infections.

Medicine has been around since the beginning of civilization. In earliest times, the doctors were priests. Then in the middle ages you had barber surgeons and those that did herbal cures.

The germ kings want to conquer Italy in the middle ages because they wanted attention. Humans were the only food they can eat. They are sick of eating other food ^.^

Couldn't do much since there was no understanding of the body or science. People died as much from the treatment as they did from illness or injury.
