Hydrogen Peroxide for Infected Wounds
On the use of hydrogen peroxide in infected wounds
People who have wounds and diseases often think of ways to treat them. Among them, the effect of hydrogen peroxide has attracted much attention.
Hydrogen peroxide, chemical name hydrogen peroxide, has strong oxidation. In infected wounds, it can react with bacteria and necrotic tissues at the wound. When applying hydrogen peroxide to the wound, foam can be seen surging, which is the reason for its decomposition to produce oxygen.
It has many benefits. First, it can effectively kill a variety of bacteria, such as common Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Because the living environment of bacteria often requires specific redox potentials, the strong oxidation of hydrogen peroxide can destroy the cell membrane, protein and nucleic acid structures of bacteria, causing bacterial death, thereby controlling the spread of wound infection. Second, the oxygen it produces can improve the local anoxic state of the wound. Many infectious bacteria are anaerobic bacteria, and the anoxic environment is suitable for their growth. The generation of oxygen can inhibit the reproduction of such anaerobic bacteria. Third, the foam generated when the hydrogen peroxide decomposes can mechanically flush the wound, bring out the dirt, foreign bodies and some necrotic tissues in the wound, clean the wound, and facilitate the healing of the wound.
However, there is also a need to pay attention to the use of hydrogen peroxide. Excessive concentration of hydrogen peroxide has irritating and corrosive effects on normal tissues, which can exacerbate wound pain and delay wound healing. Therefore, when using, it is appropriate to choose an appropriate concentration, usually the concentration of medical hydrogen peroxide is about 3%. And the frequency of use should also be moderate, overuse or damage the healing environment of the wound itself.
In summary, hydrogen peroxide has a unique effect on the treatment of infected wounds. However, it needs to be used correctly and its advantages and disadvantages should be weighed in order to maximize its advantages and help the wound recover as soon as possible.
