First Aid

Depends on what kind of foot rot it is. Feet run into a lot of fungal infections. For this, an anti-fungal cream and, if you can, keep the foot exposed and dry. If you have to wear socks during this period, change to fresh socks twice a day AND whenever your feet get wet. If you shower, wash your feet thoroughly, dry and reapply ointment as per presciption. Note that fungal infections are contagious. Bleach works wonders on killing off fungii, so that would be a good disinfectant for the shower and your clothing, but not for your bod. If you're in civilization, keep the feet clean, dry as much as possible, open to the air when you can, and medicated. When you're in the field, focus on healing the rot with creams or in some cases powders (anti-fungal), and keeping the feet DRY. In extreme cases, you may need to resort to systemic anti-fungals.

I highly doubt it.

because your bone will go in.

few mounths.

It depends where the sunburn is and how big it is. First degree burns might only take three days but it could take as long as 2 weeks.

Clean out the cut with soap and water, removing debris.

Apply an antibiotic such as Neosporin.

Bandage it up

I'm a certified lifegaurd, and there are many answers to this question.

There are three types of drowning victims.

Passive drowning - victim is not moving in water. May be submerged.

Active drowning - someone who is struggling in the water, head bobbing under and struggling to stay afloat.

Spinal drowning victim - someone who is passive and has suffered a spinal injury. NOTE: UNLESS YOU ARE CERTIFIED, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MOVE THIS PERSON AT ALL, UNLESS THEY ARE SUBMERGED AND NEED TO BE BROUGHT TO THE SURFACE FOR AIR.

You really should be certified to perform rescues on these victims - look into a lifeguard certification program in your area.

"Treatment" is really to generic a term. If they are unconsious once you pull them out and have no pulse or breathing, check their airway to see if they have an obstruction and they are choking. If the airway is clogged, do the Heimlich and back blows. If it is clear, start CPR. If they have a pulse and no breathing, breath for them, by pressing your mouth to their face and giving them a long breath, pulling your face back, counting to 3, and giving them another long breath. Do this for 40 breaths, and check if they are breathing on their own.

If they are consious, and coughing and sputtering, encourage them to do so, and they'll be fine. Just keep them warm after that.

But you really should be certified

There is no vaccine for Hep C although it is a potentially curable infection. It is spread via blood, sexual and vertical transmission (mother to foetus), with blood transmission being the key route. There is no suppressive treatment or post-exposure prophylaxis.

Medical treatment involves ribavirin and interferon, with the aim of curing infection.

Surgical treatment could involve a liver transplant, although hep c will recur in the new organ.

Someone with internal bleeding may not be able to feel it and not know until many hours later after it started. Signs of internal bleeding may be intense pain, a bruised area of the skin, vomiting or even fainting depending on the injury.

In the Heimlich maneuver (or abdominal thrust), place your hand one fist length above the victim's navel. Cover your fist with your other hand and thrust using an "up and out" motion. In this motion, do not lift your hand off the victim, but thrust inward (at a slight angle) and roll your fist.

First aid is given for three main reasons:

1. To sustain life.

2. To prevent the condition from worsening.

3. To promote recovery.

First aid forms an important part in the chain of medical care. First aid is referred to as the aid given before the arrival of medical or ambulance aid. A first aider is someone who has successfully completed a course of instruction in lifesaving first aid intervention techniques.

Often, the first person on the scene of an accident is a first aider. Their timely arrival and help can often mean the difference between life and death.

In conclusion, first aid is an important skill; perhaps just as important as ambulance aid. Without first aid, initial management of the scene can be very difficult. To take a course in first aid, simply contact your local Red Cross Branch or the local St John Ambulance Division.

Hi. I would transport the patient in the lateral position, making sure they are facing you should you need to suction their airway or perform other procedures. In regards to airway and breathing, it all depends on whether the patient is maintaining their own airway or not. A patient can quickly obstruct their airway with their tongue, or can slowly aspirate secretions or vomits down their trachea should they be left in the supine position.

The kind of food you should bring is canned vegetables and fruits, so mostly canned food. === === The above is great for a kit you don't have to carry it. The canned foods contain water, thus killing two bird with one stone. But they're heavy. So -- if you need to be mobile..: You want to carry the most calories at the least weight. Fats meet this bill but they're REALLY messy, and can thus infect easily. This leaves us at carbohydrates. For serious weight-to-calorie effectiveness, there are compressed sugar bars that are sugar, flavoring (mint is popular), and glycerine (so they don't freeze solid in super-cold temperatures). These were popular on Everest climbs -- they're a heavy calorie boost, and are easy to preserve. For longer treks, consider salt or potassium and a vitamin supplement. Lastly, you say food, but I do need to mention water. Humans can survive a surprising amount of time with no food (80 days for one prisoner in Ireland on a hunger strike!), but no water is a deadly emergency. Have water supplies and purification tablets as well, in case all else fails.

i myself preffer a light and delicate dressing. one with a slight garlic after taste that does not ruin the balance of the high quality extra virgin olive oil. but then again, what makes an olive an EXTRA virgin?

Cleaning, icing, and monitoring discomfort and swelling are remedies that treat yellow jacket stings. The stinger can be removed by scraping with a flat- or straight-edge surface -- such as a butter knife or credit card -- as long as venom is not released with accidental or deliberate pulls or squeezes. The priority is cleaning with soapy water and then alcohol or ammonia; minimizing pain and swelling with ice, immersions in Epsom salts, medications such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen, and remedies such as baking soda, meat tenderizer, salt or vinegar pastes; and monitoring for allergic reactions -- such as respiratory distress -- which demand epinephrine or 911.

No. This will most likely cause infection if done. If it really bothers you, you should go to a physician so they may drain it properly if it is causing major discomfort. Cover small blisters with an adhesive bandage, and large ones with a plastic-coated gauze that absorbs moisture.

SAMPLE: Signs and symptoms. Allergies. Medication/s. Past Medical History. Last oral intake. Events leading up to incident.

Pressure point control of bleeding actions include finding a place on the body where blood vessels are close to the surface, are over a bone, where you can feel a pulse, and that is closer to the heart than the wound. Once you have found the appropriate place, apply pressure with the fingers or with the heel of the hand. The action should compress the artery against the bone and shut off the blood flow from the heart to the wound.

I have really bad dry skin on my hands. I started to get slits, and I seemed to be bleeding all the time. Very bad. I finally found an extremely quick cure. Every night before you go to bed, put on some hand lotion that is specifically desgined for dry skin. Let that sink in for a couple of minutes. Next, use lanolin. It is meant for breastfeeding, but it will work wonders for all dry skin. Put a layer of the lanolin wherever your dry skin is. And finally, wear gloves to bed. After 4 nights, my hands were perfect. At the beginning, I recommend doing this every night. Once it gets better, you won't have to do it as often, especially in the summer. If you decide to just stop, it's possible that it will come back, but you can just do it as needed.

You can also switch to a soap that contains aloe. I use a popular liquid soap that contains aloe in the bathroom and that helps a lot, even though my kitchen soap is ordinary dishwahing liquid.

When a person suffers a head injury it is possible for cerebrospinal fluid to leak out. After a head injury if the victim has clear fluid coming from the nose or ears it should be checked to determine if it is cerebrospinal fluid.

Well it deppense, if you split it open and alot of blood comes out, you should stop the bleeding, clean up the wound and plaster it, but if it comes as a big cut, do the same but you should try and ask the doctor if its bad.

put gaze and Band-Aids on it and deb off the access blood .
