The worst part is that most of them basically do the same thing: drain your health slowly, and there are so many different types of healing items you can use to treat them.

It&#8217;s much easier to categorize them by healing item, so we&#8217;ve included a table down below for your perusal:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Healing Item<\/th><th>What It Treats<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Antibiotics<\/td><td>Treats infections<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bandages<\/td><td>Treats Contusions, Lacerations, and Puncture Wounds<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Heal Paste<\/td><td>Treats Burns and Frostbite<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Immobilizer<\/td><td>Treats Dislocated Limb, Fractured Limb, Fractured Skull, Sprain, and Torn Muscle<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Injector<\/td><td>Treats Brain Injury, Concussion, Heatstroke, Hernia, Hypothermia, Lung Damage, Poisoning, and Radiation Poisoning<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Penicillin X<\/td><td>Treats Infections<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Snake Oil<\/td><td>Treats Brain Injury, Concussion, Heatstroke, Hernia, Hypothermia, Lung Damage, Poisoning, and Radiation Poisoning<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Zipper Bandages<\/td><td>Treats Contusions, Lacerations, and Puncture Wounds<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Physical Afflictions such as fractures and dislocations get inflicted onto you whenever you take severe physical damage, such as falling from a great height. Other Afflictions are usually environment-related, such as getting exposed to poisonous gases or extreme cold. It&#8217;s also possible to get lung damage by sprinting and letting your <a href=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/starfield\/what-the-o2-co2-meters-mean-in-starfield-explained\/\">O2<\/a> run out, while also letting your CO2 build up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever you get these Afflictions, you&#8217;ll start to suffer from various symptoms, which usually just cause your health to drain over time, or reduce your O2 recharge rate, or cause you to take more damage than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"1-how-to-check-which-afflictions-you-have\">How to Check Which Afflictions You Have<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever you notice that you&#8217;re suffering from symptoms in Starfield, you&#8217;ll usually see an indicator in the bottom left corner of your HUD. Bring up the menu, then press the Y button. Select Status, and you&#8217;ll see all of the status effects you currently have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"268\" src=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_02_24-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268\" alt=\"checking status in starfield\" class=\"wp-image-979483\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_02_24-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268?w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_02_24-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268?w=600 600w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_02_24-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268?w=80 80w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_02_24-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268?w=650 650w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_02_24-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268?w=150 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Source: Bethesda via Twinfinite<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to seeing all of the Afflictions, you&#8217;ll also see the prognosis, which tells you just how severe an Affliction is. For instance, if the prognosis for one of your Afflictions is Poor, that means you should treat it straightaway as it&#8217;s unlikely to go away on its own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, if the prognosis is Good, then chances are you can leave it and it should go away over time without any treatment. You should also be able to get rid of less severe Afflictions simply by resting in a bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"2-how-to-cure-afflictions\">How to Cure Afflictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know how to check your Afflictions and status effects, it&#8217;s time to cure them. All you have to do is access your inventory and scroll to the Aid option, then press the A button to consume whichever healing item will treat your current Afflictions, and you&#8217;re good to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"268\" src=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_18_58-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268\" alt=\"curing afflictions in starfield\" class=\"wp-image-979482\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_18_58-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268?w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_18_58-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268?w=600 600w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_18_58-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268?w=80 80w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_18_58-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268?w=650 650w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Starfield-30_8_2023-12_18_58-PM.jpg?resize=640%2C268?w=150 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Source: Bethesda via Twinfinite<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And those are all of the <strong>status effects and Afflictions in Starfield, how to check them, and how to treat them<\/strong>.
