Infection

(Wounds can get infected)
The zadit is a small, tawny-feathered, sharp-billed bird.  It feeds on insects.  when sand flies and other insects, emergent after rains, infest kailla, they frequently alight on the animals, and remian on them for some hours, hunting insects.  this relieves the kailla of the insects but leaves it with numerous small wounds, which are unpleasant and irritating, where the bird has dug insects out of its hide.  These tiny wounds, if they become infected, turn into sores; these sores are treated by the drovers with poultices of kailla dung.

(Speaking of the health of soldiers of Ar in the Vosk Delta)
Sickness and infection, too were rampant, hunger and exposure, sunstroke and dysentery were common.

Bacteriology

(Priest Kings eliminate pathogens harmful to them)
I would later learn that these rays, which passed through my body as easily and harmlessly as sunlight through glass, were indexed to the metabolic physiology of various organisms which can infect Priest-Kings.  i would also learn that the last known free instance of such an organism had occurred more than four thousand years before.  In the next few weeks in the Nest I would occasionally come upon diseased Muls.  the organisms which afflict them are apparently harmless to Priest-Kings and thus allowed to survive.
-Priest-Kings of Gor, p108

"Your father was instructed to call you Tarl, and lest he might speak to you of the Counter-Earth or attempt to dissuade you from our purpose, he was returned to Gor before you were of an age to understand."
"I thought he deserted my mother," I said.
"She knew," said Misk, "for though she was a woman of Earth she had been to Gor."
"Never did she speak to me of these things," I said.
"Matthew Cabot on Gor," said Misk, "was a hostage for her silence."
"My mother," I said, "died when I was very young."
"Yes," said Misk, "because of a petty bacillus in your contaminated atmosphere, a victim to the inadequacies of your infantile bacteriology."
-Priest-Kings of Gor, p127

Arrow wounds

I had used simple-pile arrows, which may be withdrawn from a wound.  The simple pile gives greater penetration.  Had I used a broad-headed arrow, or the Tuchuk barbed arrow, one would, in removing it, commonly thrust the arrow completely through the wound, drawing it out feathers last.  One is accordingly, in such a case, less likely to lose the point in the body.
-Raiders of Gor p79

She was gasping.  Some six inches of the arrow, five inches feathered, protruded from her shoulder.
[Skipping a line] I lifted her from the cruel pinion.  She fell to her knees.  Now, the arrow gone her two wounds began to bleed.  She shuddered.  I would permit some blood to wash from the wound, cleaning it.
[Skipping a line] Then I knelt beside her and, with those skins I had taken from her, bound her wound.
[Skipping a line] She was sick from the wound, and loss of blood.  She fainted as I had carried her.
-Hunters of Gor, p112

Knives and Swords

I found Flaminius, the Physician, in his quarters, and he obligingly, though drunk, treated the arm which Ho-Tu had slashed with the hook knife.  The wound was not at all serious.  The games of Kajuralia can be dangerous, remarked Flaminius, swiftly wrapping a white cloth about the wound, securing it with four small metal snap clips.
-Assassin of Gor, p264

Head Trauma

There was a small sound of pain.  he had apparently been left for dead and was only now recovering consciousness.  His gray garment with its scarlet strip of cloth on the shoulder was stanined with blood.  I unbuckled the helmet strap and gently removed the helmet.  One side of the helmet had been cracked open, perhaps by the blow of an ax.  The helmet straps, the leather insede, and the blond hair of the soldier were soaked with his blood.  He was not much more than a boy.
[Skipping a line] "Don't struggle," I said to him, looking at the wound.  The helmet had largely absorbed the blow but the blade of the striking instrument had creased the skull, accounting for the flow of blood.  Most likely the force of the blow had rendered him unconscious and the blood had suggested to his assailant that the job was finished.  His assailant had apparently not been a warrior.  With a portion of Lara's cloak I bound the wound.  it was clean and not deep.
- Outlaw of Gor, p217

Orthopedic Trauma

One of the girls was moaning and holding her left arm tightly against her body.  It must have been severely bruised, if not broken.  If it were broken it could be set, and she could then be returned to the cage.
-Vagabonds of Gor, p459

Soft Tissue Trauma

The hunting arrow, incidentally, has a long, tapering point, and this point is firmly fastened to the shaft.  This makes it easier to withdraw the arrow from it's target.  The war arrow, on the other hand, uses and arrowhead whose base is either angled backwards, forming barbs, or cut straight across, the result in both cases being to make the arrow difficult to extract from a wound.  The head of the war arrow, too, is fastened less securely to the shaft than is that of the hunting arrow.  The point thus by intent, if the shaft is pulled out, is likely to linger in the wound.  Sometimes is is possible to thrust the arrow through the body, break off the point and then withdraw the shaft backwards.  At other times, if the point becomes dislodged in the body, it is common to seek it with a bone or greenwood probe, and then when one has found it, attempt to work it free with a knife.  There are cases where men have survived this.  Much depends, of course, on the location of the point.
-Savages of Gor, p40

Suturing Wounds

Using the dagger as an awl, punching through the flesh, and the long lacing from the lance head, while Hassan held together the edges of the ripped furrows, I crudely sewed together the rent bloodied meat before me.
