On the Oregon Trail, travelers often treated dysentery with home remedies and herbal treatments, as formal medical care was limited. Common approaches included using astringents like willow bark and various herbal teas to soothe the digestive system. Maintaining hydration was crucial, so they encouraged drinking water and consuming broths. In severe cases, some would resort to more drastic measures, including bloodletting, though this was often ineffective.
