Origin of the word surgical

The word "surgical" has its roots in the Latin words "chirurgicus" and "chirurgia". The Latin word "chirurgia" referred to the art of cutting, and it is derived from the Greek words "cheir" meaning "hand" and "ergein" meaning "to work". In the 14th century, the Latin term "chirurgicus" was adapted into Middle English as "surgical", meaning "pertaining to the art of cutting or surgery". In the early Middle Ages, surgery was considered a lowly and unskilled trade, and the term "surgical" carried a connotation of manual labor or craftsmanship. However, as surgery evolved into a more respected medical specialty, the term "surgical" came to convey a sense of expertise, precision, and scientific rigor. Today, "surgical" is widely used to denote any medical procedure that involves invasive or operative intervention.
