Health-care out of our country
I'm an Italian citizen but actually living in Argentina (I'm born in Argentina, South America)
Yesterday I suffered of a neck-pain and was treated with inyectables on the hospital of my country. I fear something similar occurring out of my country: will this kind of treatment be free in England? I have read here that the attention on English hospitals is free for EU citizens, but I don't know if that is secure / recommendable or not.
Is there a common strategy travelers use for taking care of such health-issues?
In my case I don't have any health insurance in my country but I do have a travel insurance -although this covers only emergencies.
