What should I put in my family’s First Aid kit?

Tuesday, December 29th, 2009

Dominic asked:

What should I put in my family’s First Aid kit? I think it would be safer and smart to have a disaster/First Aid kit in case of an emergency, but I can’t really think of what to pack. Can you help me?

I woke up with a paper thin cut under my eye, just below the lid. I’ve washed it out with a warm rag and put a small dab of neosporin on it, but it is still irritated and swollen. What else should I be doing?

Is First Aid Kit available in your house?

joulsey asked:

I have been in Japan for almost 2 years now and it seems that First Aid Kit is not immediately available anywhere within one’s house/apartment. I wonder if YOUR house has one, and isn’t it important for a household?
