Removing Afflictions

Apart from waiting them out, afflictions can be removed through certain uses of the skills and spells. The Treat Disease and Treat Poison uses of Medicine are commonly used to treat those afflictions. The cleanse affliction spell is also available to most spellcasters. Spells that counteract conditions at the source, such as sound body , can also be effective against diseases and poisons that cause those conditions. Curses are trickier, requiring solutions that specifically mention them, such as a 4th-rank cleanse affliction or the Break Curse skill feat.
