[QUOTE="Cailin O Eire, post: 313088, member: 34974"] Compeed - any time something feels like it's rubbing, or a hot spot put on a compeed, this should prevent an actual blister. If you get a blister Needle & Thread - personal choice is to thread the blister, so thread the needle, put needle in one side of blister and out the other leaving the thread hang out both sides and hopefully wake up in the morning blister will have drained and not refilled as can happen if you just prick it (not everyone will agree but this worked for us) Anti - histamine tabs - I got a heat rash on my legs and I got an ant bite (I think it was an ant) these tabs kept the itch away. Maybe motilium or tums just in case, or you could play charades with the pharmacist trying to describe the diarohhea ;-) ;-) Few plasters Hand sanitiser, handy when you need to use the great outdoors as a loo and need to eat after!! Can I also suggest cut your toe nails short before you go, I think you could loose nails on account of the steep down hills that the constant banging of your toe nails against the top of your shoe would cause the nail to go black and eventually finish in Santiago with a few nails less than you started. You can get all of the above and more in the pharmacies but I think it's handy to have the compeed as it's preventative, plus my friend who went to the chemist looking for a needle was sold an actual injecting needle!! Best of luck Rita [/QUOTE]
