Put whiskey on the shoulder, then drink a Ben-Gay and soda because it's Opposite Day in the 1840s apparently.

Immobilize that joint Can't sprain what you can't move.

Rivers out for blood, and our bacon supplies this run it seems. Anyway, Immobilize the joint. We need to save our ever decreasing supplies for actual injuries.

Stay. Active. Exercise that joint. Work the sprain out. Get marching, toddler.

All right, alcohol applied. We start walking and OH WHAT THE gently caress

Ok, the game is really trying to make up for such a nice and simple run from last time. Umm, increase rations I guess...

Is there a way we can keep everyone as close to the chlorea patient as possible? Only the strongest are going to survive this trip so we may as well weed out the weaklings now before they start wasting food.

Sprained their wrist trying to force the person with the concussion to run in circles when they were both distracted by the cholera.

Have we actually traveled ANY distance since the sprained shoulder? Or are we still sitting in the same spot? Slow down. Let’s make some progress at least. Also, we can’t keep using alcohol because our brave leader is almost certainly ready to start chugging it 24/7 while waiting for the next crisis.

How do you become bedridden from a sprained wrist? Get him back out there exercising that joint. How? I don't care. So long as you remember god is watching.

Compared to everything else that is happening to this apparently cursed wagon group, a sprained wrist is nothing. Continue as usual.

Immobilize the joint Then bathe his feet in warm water. But lets see what Dr. Gunn says: quote:Sprains. — A sprain, technically called subluxation or partial dislocation, is an injury of a joint — most commonly that of the wrist or ankle. Though not really a dislocation, it is often more painful and troublesome, requiring longer time to recover from, than a dislocation or fracture. A sprain is caused by a severe twist or straining of the joint in any direction farther than its natural range of motion, thus stretching and sometimes tearing or bruising the ligaments, and the surrounding soft parts, or muscles, and in bad cases, of the capsular ligament itself. Also, the section on Cholera is about 12 pages, so I'm not copying it, but basically, for treatment, he says there are a number of treatments that can work sometimes. The main danger, he points out is diarrhea, and he has a number of potential treatments. A mixture with gum arabic can work. So can ground red pepper and salt in water. A Dutch doctor recommends sulphur. A mixture of spirits of camphor, spirits of turpentine and laudanum can work. Some recommend chloroform. Others, lead acetate. An army doctor recommends a gruel made from corn meal, along with a lot of water and ice. Ultimately, though, there's no one established treatment. Just try to keep them warm, hydrated, and treat the diarrhea, and they'll either die or recover. BTW, disclaimer from me, even though I think everybody is smart enough to know this. Don't try the treatments in this book. See a real doctor. Especially don't eat lead acetate or drink turpentine or camphor. They will kill you. You want to drink a mixture of salt and red pepper in water, though, knock yourself out. It probably won't do much for your cholera.

Immobilize the joint Do this every time I don't care if the caravan becomes unable to move.

There is a distinct lack of epsom salts. Clearly, this has caused the game to turn on us. Continue onwards to the next trading post and remedy this!

Throw more alcohol at the problem, then continue manifesting our destiny full-speed ahead.

Exercise the joint. So when this game was made in the 90s, the right answer was probably immobilize the joint. However that all got thrown out and in 2019, you want to get exercising that joint as soon as possible so you dont lose range of motion and strength, or even worse, a frozen joint.

Joints are meant to be smoked, not exercised

No, you fools, chalana arroy is the one you don't sacrifice cows to. We should sacrifice all our clocks to her instead.

Listen, Chalana Arroy is a very busy goddess and a pacifist. If you want to get her attention you need to sacrifice something that matters and that means it's either clocks or the coffee mills.

Amazingly, our travels manage to go smoothly for once after taking care of the sprain! We make it all the way past the Coast of Nebraska and stop at a creek. But it looks like we only have about 45 pounds of dried vegetables left and no guarantee of how many forts or missions even exist in 1840, so it's time to forage!
