You never know when you’ll need a first-aid kit. And that’s why they’re so important to keep around. Whether you’re injured in an automobile accident, break a bone while hiking or helping someone with an accidental gunshot wound, having a stocked first-aid kit will help you manage the medical emergency until help arrives.

A basic first-aid kit comes stocked with supplies used to treat injuries such as cuts and scrapes, burns, eye irritations and sprains and strains. Oftentimes, it also comes with items to help with things such as sunburn, poison ivy and insect stings. For minor injuries like these, the kit should include adhesive bandages, antiseptics like alcohol pads, antibiotic ointment, burn sprays or gels, eye wash, gauze pads and rolls, first-aid tape, cold packs, elastic compression rolls and splinting materials, medications like antihistamines and pain relievers, hand sanitizer and protective gloves.
