On whether hydrogen peroxide can kill onychomycosis fungus
Since modern times, it has become more and more serious in the service of health. The disease of onychomycosis is quite common. Due to the growth of fungi, it causes the color and shape of nails to change, and it is contagious, which disturbs people's lives. And hydrogen peroxide, a commonly used agent for daily cleaning and disinfection, is suspected to have the ability to kill onychomycosis fungus, so it is discussed in detail.

Hydrogen peroxide, scientific name hydrogen peroxide, has strong oxidizing properties. At a suitable concentration, it can break the cell walls and cell membranes of microorganisms, and then destroy their nucleic acids and proteins, achieving the effect of disinfection and sterilization. Looking at daily life, in the disinfection of superficial wounds and skin mucous membranes, hydrogen peroxide often shows

However, the fungus of onychomycosis is hidden deep below the deck and protected by the stratum corneum. The stratum corneum is dense and tough, forming a strong barrier for fungi. Although hydrogen peroxide is oxidizing, it is not easy to penetrate this barrier and directly attack the fungal nest. If applied at a low concentration of hydrogen peroxide, its force is difficult to penetrate the stratum corneum, and there is little damage to the fungus; even if used at high concentrations, although it may slightly damage the stratum corneum, it is also irritating to the human body, and the fungus is deep and difficult to exterminate.

Furthermore, the fungus has tenacious vitality and good adaptability. If the environment changes slightly, it may be able to sleep, and when the conditions are suitable, it will breed again. Hydrogen peroxide applied to onychomycosis may be able to kill some exposed fungi, but it is difficult to remove the hidden ones. After stopping the drug, the fungi are very easy to recur.

In summary, although hydrogen peroxide has the ability to disinfect and sterilize, it has limited effect if you want to completely kill onychomycosis fungus. To treat onychomycosis, you should follow the scientific method, or use professional antifungal drugs, or combine various therapies to achieve the purpose of removing the disease. Do not rely on hydrogen peroxide alone, so as not to delay the disease.
