Not a bad thing if you've got the room for it("small" is problematic though, anything less than 20ml is a PIA to try to flush a wound with - just my opinion, YMMV). You can also use a water bladder - a good steady squeeze on the bladder generates adequate pressure for flushing



You'll definately want a quart- or gallon ziplock bag instead of an irrigation syringe.

Ziplock can also be used for:

- occlusive dressing
- storing severed finger, tooth, etc.
- irrigation of wounds, eye.
- cooling burns
- storing unused, but opened dressings
- cooling sprains
- general waterproofing of items
- gear repair
