- Alexandria, the most prominent city in ancient Egypt, bore witness to the incredible developments in ancient medicine thanks to the influence of the Greeks. The most famous Greek medical mind was Hippocrates, who lived in the 5th century BCE, on an island called “Cos.” As he made new observations and deeper study in medicine, he and his peers took a pledge called the Hippocratic Oath in which they promised to uphold high standards of medical conduct, including a pledge to enter the houses of the sick only to practice medicine, not for the purpose of “mischief and corruption.” Even in 2018, every doctor in modern society still take this Hippocratic oath, which begins with the following language: “I will respect the hard-won scientific gains of those physicians in whose steps I walk, and gladly share such knowledge as is mine with those who are to follow.” http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/body/hippocratic-oath-today.html

- Whereas Greek doctors like Hippocrates believed it was dishonorable and improper to dissect bodies, the Egyptians had no problem with the process, and even needed to perform full procedures, akin to autopsies, on bodies in order to provide the custom of mummification. The most famous doctor in ancient Alexandria, Herophilus, was able to provide very detailed accounts of various parts of human anatomy, including the brain, arteries and veins, distinguishing between tendons and nerves, and parts of the eye.

- Ancient medicine called for some questionable treatment approaches. They had cleverly learned that the opium derived from the juice of poppy flowers would serve as an excellent pain reliever. Doctors used sheep’s wool to get lanolin, a moisturizing product that would soothe one’s skin that was inflamed. Chilblains, a condition felt both in the ancient and modern world, was treated with boiled turnips, though the success of such a treatment is undoubtedly linked to the warmth in the boiled liquid, not related to the turnips themselves. If a patient had a tooth rotten to the point of decay, a doctor would insert a peppercorn into the hole of the tooth so that the tooth would break into smaller pieces and fall out of the patient’s mouth naturally in small pieces.

- Ancient doctors were capable of performing many procedures that we still use, in some form or another, today. They removed swollen tonsils, though a surgery for this required either “scratching out” the tonsils with a finger, or grabbing the tonsils with a hook and using a scalpel for removal. Incredibly, even two thousand years ago, doctors were knowledgeable and competent enough to tie veins or arteries that had blockages. They often could reset broken bones by utilizing rudimentaries wraps as a cast, and they could make stitches on open wounds. Although it was not popular or easy, patients could ask doctors to perform surgery to remove cataracts from their eyes or amputate infected limbs. Midwives were the only way in which women were able to participate in the development of modern medicine, as they helped women endure the perilous nature of childbirth.
