Hydrogen Peroxide for Wound Disinfection
"On Disinfecting Wounds with Hydrogen Peroxide"
There are many ways to treat wounds in the world. In recent times, it is quite common to disinfect wounds with hydrogen peroxide.
Hydrogen peroxide has strong oxidizing properties. It is used in wounds and can quickly come into contact with the tissue of the wound surface to produce oxygen and kill bacteria. When the wound is infected with bacteria, the reproduction of bacteria can cause the wound to deteriorate, while hydrogen peroxide will respond when it encounters bacteria. The escape of oxygen can break the structure of the bacteria and prevent it from living. This is the reason for disinfection.
It is also prudent to use hydrogen peroxide. If the wound is shallow and small, the stain is light, or it can be used. But deep wounds and major injuries should not be used alone. Cover deep wounds, or there may be anaerobic bacteria. Although hydrogen peroxide can kill surface bacteria, it can produce gas or drive bacteria into it, which will increase the disease. And hydrogen peroxide irritates tissues, and excessive use can damage normal skin and flesh, delaying the healing period.
Therefore, doctors use hydrogen peroxide to disinfect wounds and must carefully investigate the injury. Shallow, clean moderately; deep, combined with other methods, such as debridement, drainage, supplemented by antibiotics, to protect the wound and promote its early recovery.
