Struggle to sleep/recover. often wake up with inner clothes soaked (from sweat)  fever could lower feels like temperature by 5C takes antibiotics or rest to recover. caused by cougar attacks occasionally

fever lowering feels life actually is a really solid suggestion.

Infection could do this, given how our survivor is feverish while they have that affliction (given the voicelines we hear)

[The Feng Hunter]

YES.

With a long term course of antibiotics: 2 pills, 2x daily for 2 weeks.

Cougar are rare; let the after effects really hurt!

[SafeAgain]

I think that the severe lacerations is hurtful enough, needing to patch up and clean your wounds every 12 hours
