If you are suffering from a certain illness that needs medical supervision, then it is a good idea to check with the health care facilities services.
Before you go on vacation, ask your doctor if your condition allows you to travel and if you need a medical certificate that you should carry with you.
If you illness requires you to take daily medication, then make sure that you pack enough to last you through the entire holiday.
Do not remove the medication from their original boxes and do not pack them in your luggage.
Instead, keep them in your handbag so you will have easy access to them when you need them.
If you place them in your luggage and the luggage gets lost, then you are putting your health at risk.
Watch Out For The Sun If you are going to a country with a lot of sun, then you should know that it is important to take an appropriate sunscreen cream for both you and your children.
Many people think that if they are spending most of their time in the water, they will be protected.
At the same time, people who are riding a bicycle or climbing a mountain consider themselves protected.
Nothing can be further from the truth.
If you are exposing your skin to the sun too much, use a sunscreen in order to be protected from the harmful UV rays.
Another problem with sitting in the sun too much is the risk of a sunstroke.
If you are trying to get a tan, make sure that you use a stronger protection for your head.
Additionally, if you feel a burning sensation on the skin and it becomes red, cover yourself immediately and head for the shade.
