If your symptoms seem to be more than something that the above can handle, then it is best that you see a doctor. You can find doctors on the map as marked with green cross symbols, and when you speak to the doctor, you can pay a set amount Credits to heal yourself. You can pay 400 Credits to heal your wounds, 500 Credits to cure all of your afflictions, or 750 Credits to take care of everything. If you need to find a doctor in a pinch, one of the best places you can go to is The Well on Jemison as it will be the very first one you unlock. The doctor also has aid items to buy and sell, so coming here would probably be your best bet anyway.
