@jasonrogers8360
@jasonrogers8360 2 года назад
The doctor at the time was worried about the wound closing around the arrowhead so he used a series of increasingly thick twigs of alder (mildly anti microbial wood) dipped in honey (some antiseptic properties), over a few days to open the wound up more and more to help ease the passage of the head back out. They must have kept Henry off his face on poppy juice and wine for the whole time. I'd certainly hope so anyway.

Even back then they probably understood that leaving it in could cause more problems. They probably had seen that leaving something like that in could cause infections that normally might lead to gangrene and require amputation. But how do you amputate the kings head and expect him to live? You can’t. The only solution is to remove it. Then they potentially cauterized the wound which luckily also helped to disinfect it in a way by killing bacteria with heat. Some of the science might not have actually been known but they certainly knew from experience what the odds were of survival if you left a dirty arrowhead inside a person. But to do the extraction without pain meds.. king Henry V must’ve been a legend.

Having no evidence to back this up, they most likely would have simply sown the wound channel closed with sutures (most likely gut sutures), then wrapped the face in a linen/cloth bandage of some kind. It is after all just an arrow, the wound channel wouldn't be massive and the body is very good at closing wounds like that naturally.
@terrortorn

The wound was probed with clean sticks of fresh wood wrapped in clean cloth and honey. Different sizes to open the wound to allow extraction. I suppose with the wound cleaned and the honey acting as an anti septic they would have just closed the opening and bandaged it. There's no way they would have applied a red hot iron to the face.

Much like today with bullets, people would sometimes survive arrow wounds with the head still in their body. In this case though it was A in the face right by the brain stem and major blood vessels and B said face belonged to the king's heir, so it had to come out. This tool is pretty cool but it's not the only thing Bradmore invented to save Henry's life. Once the bodkin head was removed the wound was cleaned with alcohol and a wooden dowel was inserted in the hole. Each day the dowel was carved smaller and the wound was re-cleaned until it healed.

What fascinates me is that Bradmore was both surgeon and blacksmith. He likely created the tool for the surgery himself. And likely made other surgical tools for himself, too. Imagine this being done today, surgeons forging their scalpels... In any case, I learned all known forms of the tool are recreations based on his (not very accurate) description with a lot of guesses made to fill the holes, the original tool did not persist. But the thread was definitely forged, there was no other way to make them in 1400s.

There are parallels in orthopedic surgery going back as long as it has been a specialist field, with surgeons being very closely involved with designing the tools and 'hardware' used in mending, straightening and immobilizing bones. Perhaps not wielding the hammer, but almost certainly working one-on-one with the guy who does.

Nicely forged! This inspired an idea that I'll have to experiment with: "hot-tapping" steel. Idea is to use a square bar or something, twisted, as the screw and also to make the hot-tap, which would be twisted into an undersized hole in hot plate stock. Like punching a hole, you'd need to keep the tap cool. Maybe even tap it in with light hammer blows as you twist it.

Did the English forge their arrow heads? I know the Chinese started casting theirs as early as the 13th century, and I'm pretty sure they did it even earlier. Though now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure the Chinese used copper arrowheads instead of iron
@GaisaSanktejo
@GaisaSanktejo 2 года назад
I believe so. I've seen blacksmiths forge them and once you have a decent base metal, its VERY quick. Casting them may be quicker due to being able to cast multiple arrowheads in bulk, but I doubt they would be as sharp and copper/brass arrowheads wouldn't have been as effective at penetrating plate armour as forged steel/iron ones
@theduke7539
@theduke7539 2 года назад
@@GaisaSanktejo that is true, the Chinese smith's had the problem of quantity and were fighting enemies wearing woolen coats and only light fabric based armors like woven silk with animal hide as a backer. Very few had armor on the step, those that did didn't have access to the plate armor we associate with 13th to 16th century Europe. So iron would have been overkill and likely would have been wasteful as the iron deposits in China are deeper than those of Northern Europe, so there was just less iron floating around the region.
@Waldemarvonanhalt
@Waldemarvonanhalt 2 года назад
Accessible iron deposits were very sparse in pre-modern China, so that's probably the case. Actually forging the arrow head also work hardens it, even before quenching, since you're aiming for it to be hard enough to have a chance of penetrating maille.
