Treat or Cure? Are you a Doctor?

When I went to the Pharmacy in Ukraine, the woman asked me in English what would you like to Cure. I asked her if she was a Doctor. 

She looked confused....

That's because she was confused....

Treatment may lead to a cure. You have to treat something first to cure it.

Usually a cure is used for serious things that need special remedy.

To treat is used for something over-time. Unless you're the village witch, or you have some special powers, you cannot cure people. That's why we have Doctors. They cure people, don't they after all?
