Ok here are some remedies that I had never head before for a splinter and…
“Danger: A splinter in your thumb
Action plan: First, cut a square from a banana peel and put it white-side down on the splinter. Then cover it with a bandage. The enzymes in the peel will draw out the splinter.
No banana? Spread Elmer’s glue on the splinter, let it dry and peel it off.
Danger: Heat exhaustion
Action plan: Your internal cooling system doesn’t work as well as you age, so if you’re feeling dizzy or light-headed and your skin is clammy, those are sure signs you’re becoming overheated. Immediately find shade and elevate your feet, then rehydrate with cool water. (Avoid ice water, which is not as easily absorbed.) Pouring cool water on your wrists and feet can also help lower your body temp more quickly.”
Now as or heat exhaustion… I get that a lot cause I sure like to find shade, put my feet up and drink water!…
