Narrated Usamah ibn Sharik:

I came to the Prophet (Peach be upon him) and his Companions were sitting as if they had birds on their heads. I saluted and sat down. The desert Arabs then came from here and there. They asked: Messenger of Allah, should we make use of medical treatment? He replied: Make use of medical treatment, for Allah has not made a disease without appointing a remedy for it, with the exception of one disease, namely old age.

That was just the work of the Devil who was picking it with his hand, and when he uttered the spell on it, he desisted.
