During the American Civil War, soldiers typically took showers infrequently, often only once every week or two, depending on their circumstances. Many camps lacked proper bathing facilities, and soldiers often relied on nearby rivers or streams for washing. Hygiene practices varied widely, influenced by the availability of water and the conditions of the battlefield. As a result, soldiers often dealt with poor sanitation and hygiene, which contributed to the spread of disease.
Daily life for soldiers during the Civil War was often grueling and unpredictable. They faced harsh conditions in camps, including inadequate food, unsanitary living situations, and exposure to the elements. Soldiers spent long hours drilling, maintaining their weapons, and preparing for battle, interspersed with moments of boredom or anxiety. Communication with family was limited, and many struggled with the psychological toll of war, including the constant threat of injury or death.
If they weren't killed by soldiers on the opposite side, they were most often killed by their wounds getting infected. Also, many died of dysentary and measles.

One hardship that was not commonly faced by soldiers in the Civil War was a lack of access to communication with their families. While letters were often delayed and could take time to reach their destinations, the ability to send and receive letters was prevalent. In contrast, soldiers frequently dealt with inadequate supplies, harsh living conditions, and the constant threat of illness and injury. Thus, communication, though challenging, was not among the primary hardships.
There was no communication systems in the civil war. The only system was the telegraph and that was often cut.

they had a lot of fights in civil war
Disease and illness rapidly spread among civil war soldiers due to lack of proper hygiene and poor living conditions. The army camps were often dirty and cramped. This made life in the camps uncomfortable for the soldiers. There often were food shortages, and supplies could not be delivered on time, so soldiers would starve. Most civil war soldiers died from sickness before having the chance to fight.
For soldiers on both sides of the US Civil War, a major and consistent threat for soldiers were diseases such as malaria and dysentery. Also, the large number of amputations during the war, often resulted in infections due to the lack of antibiotic medicines.
