>>>If your concern is skin and soft tissue (wound) infections, ...<<<<br><br>What should be one's concern? And under what conditions?<br><br>Specifically, most, but not all, of the information on this site is geared towards pilots. I am a casual outdoorsman on weekend outings with the Boy Scouts. We rarely go anywhere that's not within hours of help, perhaps a few days under extreem circumstances.<br><br>And of course, I travel in my car, which could leave me stranded overnight, or a few days under extreem circumstances.<br><br>Under these two scenarios, are the medication requirements different than what's described on the site and in this forum?<br><br>A second question I have is with regards to pain medication. One of the kits I am assembling is for my son, who is a minor. Of course I'd consult with his physician before outting anything besides his dailt asthma meds in the kit. But I slightly worried about a minor carying perscription pain medication in his fanny pack or backpack.<br><br>I know my son is mature enough to understand the issues and seriousness of having such medication. Plus he's been very responsible in handling his medications for asthma over the years. But I'm still unsure if it's wise to include them in his kit. Any thoughts?<br><br>Willie Vannerson<br>McHenry, IL
