Ok we all have a bandaid, an antiseptic and maybe a gause pad and some tape.

What are the other really valuable items worth carrying on a long trip where weight really matters?

One item I like is a very light plastic plunger tube for extracting insect venom. I ALWAYS carry a tiny tube of eye wash in case of an object in my eye. I generally carry a blue hydrogel pad because I've found that as soon as you slap it on any kind of wound it starts feeling better and its protected - of course the bigger the better but 2x3 or 3x3 or 3x4 might be ideal. They seem to last over more than one season if closed up. I also carry a nail file, nail clippers and mini tweezers, but I leave the sutures and scalpels at home.

What sort of unusual first aid items have you carried and found to be worthwhile????
