Imaginative medieval dark medicine: hairdressers as doctors, bleeding to cure all ills
At a time when innovation is especially scarce, imagination is a surefire flattery. Little do I know what a horror it would be if it had anything to do with medicine, which is what people in the Middle Ages had to deal with on a daily basis: craniotomy for headaches, bleeding at the slightest word, rough enema, amputation... Cured is God's blessing, not cured, only your own SINS.
