This chapter considers two interrelated aspects: who to consult or who to turn to in the case of illness, and the remedies or medicines usually kept at home. As regards the first aspect, according to the places surveyed, people sometimes went first to the doctor and at other times to the healer, with the latter being considered authoritative as regards bone problems. Then there are the cases of other people who were called on to heal. The remedies kept at home include plants grown in vegetable patches and gathered in the countryside, and products purchased from the chemist's.
