Today we faced our first problem on the Oregon Trail. Ashley, one of our member of the wagon trail, got a huge discussing blister on here foot. At first we were not sure what we should do! We were not sure if we should pop the blister, or should we just leave it and it will go away by it self? Or should we treat it with iodine? It looked so discusting! There were lots of possiblities and if we did not choose the correct one Ashley might not live. But this is what we chose to do.... 1. Boil the needle 2. Pop the Blister with the needle 3. Let the blister air out 4. Don't wear tight shoes The consicinse was that Ashley got her blister infected on her foot. We were very scared for Ashley. That happend because we did not do the right thing. |
