From dehydration to tinnitus, a five-day party on Worthy Farm doesn't come without its risks.

With just days to go until gates open, thousands of people across the country are preparing to head to one of the biggest festivals in the world.

So here is a quick rundown of some simple things you can do to prevent some of the pain of a five-day party.As Brits, there are few pleasures in life that top basking in the sunshine with a cold beer at a festival, but doctors have urged festival-goers to drink plenty of water over the five-day event.

She suggests using hearing protection - ear plugs of muffs - "as these lower the level of sound, but still enable you to hear everything - and it can often sound better, too".Busy festivals like Glastonbury are breeding grounds for bacteria, but Dr Adam Staten, clinical director at One Day Tests and NHS GP, advises campers to keep their feet as clean as possible.

"While it's fun to put on colourful outfits, wearing unsupportive shoes like sandals can easily lead to sprained ankles, which could result in the rest of your weekend being a lot less enjoyable," he says.
