How did men shave in the middle ages?

The answer is "not very often". Knives were used, or shears if the beard or hair were very long, and the knives were not always very sharp. Alexander Neckham implies that shaving was done only every few days or even once a week, so most men had an almost permanent stubble. Small knives might be used for shaving the face but it would have been a tricky and painful business. Monks had their tonsures shaved even less often, at certain points in the religious calendar, so the popular image of monks with gleaming bald patches is completely wrong. The link below takes you to an image of a monk about to have the central part of his head shaved with a large knife, and another of a bishop shearing the hair of a man about to become a priest:


What was the cure to the illneses 1600?

It was a variety of things. Some were dangerous to take. Mercury was used a great deal, urine, having leeches bleed a sick person ( a leach is put on a person to get blood) or cutting a person to “bleed” them. Herbs were often used as teas or poultices. For things like burns lard was used and if a person was seriously hurt most often they died a painful death.


What was early surgery like in the middle ages?

"People" did not perform surgery, but some physicians and some monastic infirmaries certainly attempted various surgical procedures.Evidence associated with monastic infirmaries includes the removal of part of a mis-shapen heel bone, which had been sawn off and discarded in a drain, and a knee joint that had been repaired with small plates of copper. In the first of these cases, the drain also contained poppy seeds, indicating that poppy juice may have been administered as an anaesthetic.Lay surgeons (called medici at the time) would cut open some types of wound or ailment; or used physical manipulation (in the setting of fractures or dislocated bones); or applied various forms of remedy externally, such as poultices and dressings. Cauterization was commonplace, involving the application of hot irons of various shapes to seal wounds and arteries. Special pliers were devised to help extract barbed arrowheads by flattening the barbs.The scope of surgery was limited and the variety of techniques were limited - blood poisoning, for example (a common condition at the time) could not be treated and generally resulted in a long, slow, painful death.Most ordinary folk could not afford to pay for the services of a medicus, so their patients tended to be members of the aristocracy or wealthy craftsmen and merchants.
