There are multiple status effects in the game that you can get from combat or exploration. In this article, we'll break them all down for you. All status effects and how to cure them Starfield works on a grouping system where all the status effects, while potentially being caused by different things, fall into those distinct groups. Those issues are then healed with specific items that you can find, make, or buy in the game. It is actually much easier to group everything based on the cures and discuss them that way. To cure any of the status effects, you need a medical item (called an aid item) with the relevant symbol. Red Bandages Screenshot by Dot Esports Lacerations Contusions Puncture Wounds All these afflictions can be healed with Bandages. Yellow Aerosol Screenshot by Dot Esports Brain Injury Concussion Heatstroke Hernia Hypothermia Lung Damage Poisoning Radiation Poisoning All these afflictions can be healed with Injectors. Orange Drops Screenshot by Dot Esports Burns Frostbite All these afflictions can be healed with Heal Gel. Purple Pill Screenshot by Dot Esports Infections This affliction can be healed with Antibiotics. Blue Broken Bone Screenshot by Dot Esports Dislocations Fractures Sprain Torn Muscles All these afflictions can be healed with Immobilizer. The differences between injury severity You will notice that the Health section of your main menu has a Prognosis segment when you are injured. This is the likelihood and speed at which your medical issue might heal on its own. If your prognosis is poor, get yourself to a doctor because it's unlikely that the issue will heal any time soon. Nothing is ever simple in Starfield, and sometimes you'll get an injury so severe that you actually have multiple symptoms. You could suffer a nasty fall that delivers a number of symptoms and need a way to heal them all. You can find items that will heal multiple different types of symptoms. Infused Banages, for example, can heal Contusions, Lacerations, Puncture Wounds and also Burns and Frostbite. Where to find doctors in Starfield The real heroes of Starfield, doctors, can be found in meds bays marked by green cross symbols all over the game. They are happy to heal up everything that is wrong with you for a price. The first Med Bay you will be close to is in The Well on Jemison. They are also a good place to buy and sell aid items, so don't be shy about dropping some cash on the doctor's services if you are in need. It will cost the following amount of credits to get healed from different issues: Heal all wounds - 400 Credits Heal all afflictions - 500 Credits Take care of all issues
