Diseased implies you are ill; in-which consulting the good doctor sky or making some medicine is the only thing that can cure you. Though be warned that if you are knocked out via the disease you will die. Try taking five doses of each medicine if no predominate effects are in place yet as taking a shotgun route to curing yourself early on will cost less resources than later on when the disease if fully grown.

Try willow bark tonic. Made via boiling willow bark. You'll receive soaked bark and a pot filled with willow bark tonic. Drink it via making a bark cup and filling the cup with the tonic; thereafter equipping the cup and right clicking to drink it.

Try columbine paste. Made via grinding wild columbine, 0.5L water, and myrtle oak leaves in a grindstone.

Try smelling salts. Made via grinding antlers in a grindstone.

Try using a leech. Apply leech to your shirt slot and allow to become bloated. Each feeding it has the ability to cure your disease.

You may find yourself with symptoms of one disease and have the complete opposite; thus is why trying everything is recommended.

Alternatively you can add the good doctor via the hearth secret: Doctor Sky

This is good folk and will cure you free of charge and teach you how to protect yourself. To prevent future disease buy a plague doctor's mask, or the store version, and wear it when encountering any folk in the main town.

Thanks for your patience&reply.
You are a poet I think...

I know one may get diseased by biten by rat or being Infected by dead&alive ill people.
But is there any other way?I get ill just when I logged in

To fully understand how this is possible lets go over a simple check list to give all of us a better idea of the situation.

To begin:
I. Do you have a homestead? Such as an area that you can actively port to and fro. Lento or claim; either or as long as you have one, alongside if they are set as your home, is all I need to know.

II. Where did you log out at? Was it in, or near, Providence?

III. Have you come into contact with any diseased folk?

IV. This one is unlikely but possible. Do you live near neighbors; and if you do or do not have you seen activity in your area? We can not rule which-craft out of the possibility though it is unlike yet possible. You do not need to answer this one if you do not wish to. It is just to give the possibility, despite how unlikely it is, clarity if it is the main reason. If it turns out to be this then I can not help you but you can still deal with the main causes with common means mentioned earlier. Getting rid of the problem will be something another has to assist you with as I've no knowledge, currently, of this area.

V. Do you live in the darkness; and if you do do you have a church? I'm not asking for your location, but simply a yes or no.

If you logged in near a few diseased, and flesh covered dead folk, there is a possibility the diseased transitioned into your character. All it takes is one to transmit. The reason behind number I is that if you've no homestead you will remain logged in the game, thus allowing for someone to contaminate you with their illness. Number II consults the possibility of early disease going unnoticed; which thereof goes into number III and back to number I. Number IV if the one I do not believe is likely though it can be possible; by this I mean it is a small percentage possibility. Number V consults the main source of disease in the game as the darkness if the genesis of disease via rats and other mechanics at work. All of these come into play and can easily be checked off, but make it easy to figure out what went wrong in the first place.

Best wishes.

If you aren't wearing the doctor's mask or not drinking berry juice there is a 100% possibility you will get diseased if you use providence actively.

It is quite possible most of those bases are inactive; alongside not being within the darkness really rules out most factors. I'll take it your friend is a hermit and mostly relies upon selling items via NPC stalls so the possibility of this being contracting via simply brushing up against someone is quite possible. It is unlikely a which came though have him keep his eyes out for odd things. I only brought in the possibility of which-craft as it is the least likely, beyond unreasonable, to be the main cause. Let alone not even being in darkness and close to civilization makes it even less likely. Adding on that if it is a which then what their specialization is comes into question and what unbalances have occurred to begin with. Which as you can imagine makes it the most unlike, near not worth mentioning, to happen. I'd brush it off as a close contact with ill folk.

The best solution is to do as Yes said. Get the mask ASAP or buy the store version. Either will work just fine and have good long-term effects.
Keep calm and stay peachy.
