EDC/Hiking First Aid Kit

Good suggestion on the gatorade doesn't hurt as a seasonal thing. One thing tons of people neglect are the diabetic. Also my friends are retards and we don't plan on being anywhere near sober while camping.


Leukotape looks like it'd actually have some fucking use other than blister tape holy shit.

I never understood the Super Glue wound closure thing. Wounds will be wet so would the glue even stick and even if it sticks do you want a layer of glue between flesh that is supposed to bond and heal? Do you apply glue to dry skin on both sides and pitch together, pretty much deforming the flesh?
I could see it as extra strong butterfly bandaid.
Someone should work out how to use Super Glue to make splits and braces, combined with heavy fabric, sticks, etc. Idea being you'd just carry Glue.
I'm still looking for good info on DOSAGES for antibiotics. Doesn't really help to know you can use same as sold for fish tanks if you don't know how much to take for what, and unlike Opioids you can't just start small and work your way up by feels.

Diarrhea is a big killer, due to sudden dehydration. Not sure if that is address by over the counter anti-D pills, or what the real treatment is for life threatening squirts, especially if drinking water isn't unlimited.

You just need your damn electrolytes.
Ringer's solution if you can precisely measure stuff.
If not then do some makeshift saline, nobody will OD when you keep it under 100g per ingredient.
You should probably put it closer to 1-3g per substance if you have to do some hobo saline.
Salt (sodium chloride), baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), potassium chloride, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride.
Snort it, drink it, infuse it, insert into rectum.
It tastes like shit, but hey, better than going belly up 'cos you got no infusion set and aren't fan of cave xxxplorer.

From my experience the best diarrhea solution is the simplest. I mean, there was one time polymethylsiloxane polyhydrate, diosmectite and loperamide combined didn't help that much while a nice load of activated charcoal tablets tamed the volcano immediately.

Don't get injured in the first fucking place, retard. And if you do, walk it off.
Things would be better if we didn't have stuff like doctors and medicine and first aid to keep every idiot alive.

Ive closed a huge knuckle cut with super glue, yes it sticks, and yes it closes the wound in a couple of weeks of ripping it off and replacing it.

You use medical superglue as opposed to the toolbox stuff which is toxic and not flexible.


This is why we wash our hands after taking shits and why we don't drink unclean water.


From what I understand there is a thing that astronauts drink which is essentially saline but formulated a bit different which is excellent for hydration.


haven't used it myself but from what I've heard shit is supposed to heal by the time it wears off. What kind of glue did you use?

bring a marker too, and a watch, if you ever have to use a tourniquet you have to write the time you put it on, on the tourniquet

Always a good practice to carry a watch, dunno if there are a whole lot of people who actually remember to write the time down. Would probably help to keep the marker with the tourniquet.
