Answer:

While trekking, your friend slipped on a sloppy terrain and twisted his/her ankle immediate action taken

• First, I will help him to come out from the sloppy terrain.

• Second, I will make him clear.

• Third, I will give her support so that he can walk and sit on a better place. Next I will observe his ankle for few seconds and after that begin to take care of it.

• I can remember where is my First Aid Box, I took it for trekking. Always we should keep it while trekking or something else like traveling, mountaineering and so on.

• First Aid Box is filled with many small items like : cotton, scissor, crepe bandage, volini spray, tourniquet, dettol anti septic, spirit, medicines like parasitamol, pantoprazole and so on.

• So, fourth, I will add volini spray to reduce pain quickly and wait for car or cart. Obviously I will search for hospital or medicine shop, if I get I will admit him very fast.

• Remember never add crepe bandage after adding volini spray, use either volini spray or crepe bandage and paracetamol can be used as pain killer. Although we should not take paracetamol without physician's instructions.
