An aweful lot!! Practically everything apart from germs. They understood about a healthy balanced diet and what foods where bad news. If you broke a bone they would succsessfully mend it for you. Egyptian doctors were very advanced one of the most advanced at their time. The mummies they made proves that they were very capable at preserving dead bodies and because of these we know about the state of health the people had been in.
