Alfalfa leaves in ancient times to treat disorders of the digestive tract. The Ayurvedic physicians of India prescribed the leaves and flowering tops for poor digestion.
As dysentery usually gets better on its own after 3 to 7 days, treatment is not usually needed. However, it's important to drink plenty of fluids and use oral rehydration solutions if necessary to avoid dehydration. Painkillers, such as paracetamol, can help relieve pain and a fever.
If you were to get a broken leg on the Oregon Trail you would have someone lie you down on a hard surface. Then they would take the leg and pull it as hard as they could trying to put it back in place. Then once they thought that it was it the right place they would put a board next to your leg and tie a string around and around so that you could not move that leg. After that you would hope for the best.
Until late 1800s most people used Laudanum or poppy derivatives such as opium, morphine, and codeine. Asprin-type pain relievers (from the bark of birch trees) were being developed in the 1890s
they put axle grease or an ointment made out of hog and lard
put them under cold water for 15 to 20 minutes.
Actually, it is treated by mixing pine tree with water and egg whites. Drink this every day or so.
In the 1800's on the Oregon Trail a person who caught dysentery was in trouble from the start. Until Gregory Colloni of Italy, a pioneer on the trail, mixed leaves from a pine tree with water and egg white. The patients tried the potion and it worked successfully. Mr. Colloni is one of the unknown heroes of the world. If not for him, many more people would have died on the Oregon trail.

On the Oregon Trail, to cure Cholera they would give the infected person laudanum (an opium tincture useful in combating the disease). If the travelers didn't have laudanum, they would increase fluid and salt intake to prevent dehydration, and give the person lots of rest.
There was no treatment for it. Most of the people who got it died especially the children. I remember walking through the graveyard at Silver City Nevada and every other grave was a child who died of smallpox. On the trail they had less chance,of survival.
