Whether you're hitting the beach or hanging out in your backyard, you'll probably spend tons of time outside this summer. And while wearing a hat and sunscreen can help protect your skin from harmful UV rays, there's more you'll need to do to feel good all summer long.
Listen Up!---If you're a swimmer, you're bound to get water in your ears. If there is no sign of infection, such as pain, gently wash out the water with isopropyl alcohol. If this doesn't work, see a doctor.
Look Out!---Even short-term exposure to the sun can burn your corneas, which can lead to a painful condition called photokeratitis. Long-term exposure may increase your risk of developing cataracts. You need a good pair of sunglasses that absorb UV light. Each lens must cover your entire eye.
Bug Off!----With diseases such as dengue, it's important to prevent mosquito bites. Insect repellent should be applied regularly to exposed skin.
Drink Up!---Not much dehydrates you more than time in the sun. Drink water continously all day.
