Alla:

I snipped a lot, because that is my main point - I don't think that 
Snape CAN be confident that Harry does not need medical care at all. 
IMO of course. He does not just have a tricle of blood on his face, 
his whole face is bloodied. I think Snape should have checked, but 
of 
course he is Snape. It is just I cannot help but be amazed every 
time 
I see the new evidence of his cruelty.(IMO of course) I am just 
wondering how far he can go. I stated in my previous post that I 
believe that as of right now Snape does not want Harry dead ( and I 
do 
NOT think that he has altruistic reasons of course. But I obviously 
just speculating here), but in my speculative opinion if Harry 
experiences any kind of suffering less than death(or something that 
can lead to death as Crucio), be it physical or emotional, Snape 
will 
not do anything.

Alla:

I speculate that Harry would not ask Snape for medical attention 
even 
if he will be close to death as things stand right now. I don't 
think 
that it excuses Snape not asking though.

Just my opinion obviously,
