The Sims 4: Enchanted By Nature introduces fairies to the Sim world, alongside mischievous gnomes, new ways to interact with nature, and other natural remedies and practices.
A more troublesome feature in Enchanted By Nature is the Ailments. Ailments are often attributed to fairies, and they can have overwhelming and sometimes dangerous effects. Luckily, players can cure Ailments, rather than having to tough them out. Here's a list of all the Ailments and how to cure them in The Sims 4: Enchanted By Nature.

What are Ailments in The Sims 4: Enchanted By Nature?
Ailments, similar to illnesses in Get to Work, are magical sicknesses with peculiar side effects. Once a Sim contracts an Ailment, they will receive special moodlets, but it can also affect other Sims. Sims can get Ailments in a few different ways:
- Cursed by a Fairy
- Caught from another Sim
- Bad Luck
- Low Balance
Sims with Ailments usually develop physical symptoms, such as unique markings or auras. Players can use these indicators to decide whether to avoid them, as some of the Ailments are contagious.
How to Cure Ailments in The Sims 4: Enchanted By Nature
Ailments can be treated in various ways. They subside over time, but if the symptoms are too difficult to manage, players can use Elixirs to cure them. Elixirs can be bought or crafted using an Apothecary Table. As Sims increase their Apothecary Skill, they will unlock more cures and Elixirs.
Fairy Sims can also cure Ailments using one of the abilities from the Fairy Skill Tree.
Players can also buy Elixirs to cure Ailments from the Innisgreen Apothecary. Elixirs require special ingredients, and Sims can forage for or purchase them at the Apothecary Table. Sims can get more familiar with Ailments and their symptoms by joining the Naturopath Career. Sims can treat clients from home by examining them and giving them a cure.
