My wounds hurt less/My wounds look cleaner plus being "sick"

[s1rGr1nG0 81]

When using the tincture I started seeing this message. Does it mean I should continue using the tincture or is one application enough?

 

Also, when you are "sick" what do you do to cure that? I've tried tetracycline but it didn't seem to do anything. When using things like antibiotics or alcohol tincture is one application enough or do you need to use it several times?

If it is food poisoning charcoal tablets.

Use it once and wait about 20/30 mins...you will then get a message saying "My wounds are now clean" and you should be sorted. I think it's a bug that it gives you sickness atm

Oh ok, thanks for the speedy replies guys!

I don't think it was food poisoning. I never pick up or eat any rotten food.

No, if you use an antibiotic or tincture and see the message "sick", just let it run it's course.

After a bit, you should start seeing "my wounds feel a bit cleaner" or something like that. Stay fed and hydrated and go about your usual business, while avoiding injuries especially from infected.

After some time (30mins+ sometimes), you'll get a green message saying "my wounds feel clean now". And the "sick" message will disappear. At this point you'll be clean of any infection from infected.

 

If you after like an hour you don't see the message, re-apply the tincture or take ONE antibiotic. The process should resume.

 

Do NOT spam tincture/medical pills. Just take one and let the process happen. It'll take time, don't worry about it.

You can still get food poisoning from canned food, make sure to keep an eye on its 'durability'

You actually can't, I have eaten so much ruined food and never gotten sick from it.

Has it been confirmed? Never noticed it in game so far.

It is not food poisoning... The title says something about wounds. Do you get wounds from food poisoning? No...
