Understanding Health and Injuries

Understand SCUM's complex health and injury system: cuts, fractures, bleeding, and pain. Learn to treat injuries with bandages and splints.

Your health bar is critical, but SCUM's injury system is far more complex. You can suffer various injuries: cuts, lacerations, fractures, sprains, and bullet wounds. Each requires specific treatment. Small cuts can be bandaged with rags, while deeper wounds might need sterile bandages or even sutures. Fractures require splints. Bleeding must be stopped quickly, or you will rapidly lose health. Monitor your blood loss and pain levels. Pain can impair your movement and aim. Always carry basic medical supplies like rags, bandages, and painkillers. Eating nutritious food and staying hydrated helps with recovery. Avoid unnecessary risks, as severe injuries can be debilitating and lead to death.
