Doctors are highly respected in ancient Egyptian society, although the modern standards of practice, was a mixture of real science, magic, quackery and the superstitious mumbo-jumbo. The ancient Egyptian physicians had a high international reputation in their time were in great demand and the kings and princes from outside Egypt. The account of the papyrus period Rammesid tells a story of "Prince of Bakhten" (King of Hittites), who sent pleas for His Majesty the King of Egypt Bentrach, his daughter, who was struck in the problem that caused her limbs to twitch violently. The pharaoh graciously sent a scribe of the "House of Life" Bakhten to travel and participate in the Hittite king's daughter.
Egyptian Medicine an exclusive area of the priests. The ancient gods of the priests, doctors usually Serkis, Ra-Atum and Neith. They are cultivated in herb gardens, to medicine. There was a temple dedicated to the goddess Neith of Sais, which is a medical school and a herbarium in which the various herbs and herbal products such as castor oil, mandrake, dill, cumin, coriander and ammonium carbonate.
Medical papyri of ancient Egypt date back to the old kingdom. The ancient Egyptians venerable tradition, so the older method of treatment or medical papyrus, the greater was the authority attributed to him.
How reliable was the service of the Egyptian doctors?
We know that ancient Egyptian physicians were skilled makers of bone (the practice is still very highly developed countries, local doctors in many parts of Africa). The ancient Egyptian doctors already are familiar with the herbs and is very effective antiseptic ointments amarról treat wounds and cuts, which are dressed with bandages and compresses.
The biggest area of weakness was the medicine that the evidence, a mystery about them. It returned to the spells, incantations and magic formulas. Most of the time the medical service was more danger to life and health of the patient than the disease itself. The doctor is a bizarre collection of pharmacy "drug" products, like the lizard blood, excrement of frogs and toads, bats wings, viscera and scrapping mud snail, breast milk and menstrual blood of virgins.
Such evil potions and magical incantations are usually made manoeuvrings alien. There was, however, not all the darkness of the ancient Egyptian physicians in internal medicine. Were aware of the significance of the heart. Historians have often expressed surprise at the ancient Egyptian doctors do not know the abdominal organs such as liver, kidney and pancreas, as the development of the art and practice of embalming in ancient Egypt. He stressed, however, that the Egyptian embalmers usually not the doctors and the doctors do not usually embalmers. The opportunity to cross ideas and knowledge between the two professions was limited to the professions usually jealously guarded their knowledge and skills for the layman.
Herodotus commented on the great concern of the ancient Egyptians for their health. "They take care of their health-emetics and laxatives used by them for three consecutive days every month, and I believe that all illness comes from food consumed."
Despite the limited knowledge of the ancient Egyptian doctors tended to specialize. According to Herodotus were healing eyes, abdomen and bones. There were those who dealt with most problems in gynecology specialist in infertility, although the records show that the practice was most harmful, and "gynecologists" could be regarded as genuinely dangerous to the health of patients.
