Plaga Astuosa
Plaga Astuosa, the hot qeteshian plague, is often contracted by people traversing the swamps of Qetesh. However, this disease is unique to the Infernal Mire region on Qetesh, as it is caused by the growing Pnaencuphax there. It is, essentially, a harsher variant of the Qetesh Swamp Fever.

What to expect: ear pain and mouth sores often start out of nowhere within an hour, but rarely are both experienced at once, accompanied by a fluctuating body temperature. After the initial onset, ear pain generally fades away, only to return later. The temperature fluctuations often increase in intensity in this period. Around this time finger numbness aswell as itchy skin bumps are experienced by most people. The experience of finger numbness often subdues the severity of the experience of mouth sores.
It is at this point where the diarrhea and general nausea sets in, but only in specific cases and is usually only experienced faintly. This is accompanied with gum pain, which roughly 25% of people experience, primarily when standing up.
After a few more days cramping is experienced frequently and is generally experienced at moderate levels.
Throughout the course of the disease, delusion may be experienced, but only in some extreme cases and often fades as quickly as it starts.
Made worse by: High blood pressure. Spicy food. Certain medications.
Treatment: Heavy suppressants.
