untreated
Not medically addressed
Untreated describes something that hasn't received treatment—whether medical, chemical, or otherwise.
Untreated water hasn't been purified.
An untreated wound hasn't been cleaned or bandaged.
Untreated wood lacks protective stain or sealant.
The infection went untreated for weeks.
The word often carries an implicit warning: untreated conditions tend to worsen.
