Summer fun also means bumps, bruises and rashes. We asked Dr. Mia Finkelston, who treats patients using LiveHealth Online, what she recommends you pack in your first aid kit for summertime.
Dr Mia’s summertime first aid kit includes….
- Ibuprofen
- Allergy medicine
- 1% hydrocortisone cream
- Astringent solution (for relief of minor skin irritations)
- Rubbing alcohol
- Hydrogen peroxide
- Adhesive bandages
- Moleskin (great for blisters when hiking or wearing new sandals that rub)
