Commentary for Avodah Zarah 53:17
אלא ריפוי ממון דבר שאין בו סכנה ריפוי נפשות דבר שיש בו סכנה והאמר רב יהודה אפילו ריבדא דכוסילתא לא מתסינן מינייהו
Rather “healing related to money” must therefore mean where no danger is involved and “personal healing” where there is danger. But has not Rav Judah said: Even the wound over a bloodletting incision should not be healed by them?
Daf Shevui to Avodah Zarah
We cannot say that Jews may be healed by them only in cases where the healing is not dangerous for this would contradict a statement made by Rav Judah.
