The symptoms of the plague were based on the form of plague you had.
If you had the Black
Death you would...
-Have Itchy Purplish blotches or buboes
-Be Coughing Blood
-Have a High Fever
-Be vomiting
-Be sweating
Have diharrea
-Have the Chills
-Have swollen Glands
-Be bleeding under skin
-Have Aching bones
During this time the medical information was limited giving those diseased with the black death
a low chance of surviving. In attempt to cure the disease the people of Europe thought by eating figs, certain spices, burning
Jupiter branches having a spider in your house, forcing yourself to vomit, bathe in human/goat urine, burn/cut skin, not sleeping
on your back, setting out fresh baked bread, drink goat urine, move often in bed, avoid bad smelling places, eating fiber
nuts, not sleeping too much, drinking vinegar, purifying the air, bloodletting, prayer, flagellants, and setting out bowls
of milk. Most if not all of these attempts either did not help or worsened the disease.
