Hydrogen Peroxide Skin Side Effects
Hydrogen peroxide is highly oxidizing and is commonly used on the skin, but it also has many side effects.
First, it can cause skin irritation. If directly exposed to higher concentrations of hydrogen peroxide, the skin often feels tingling, burning, and even redness and swelling. If the concentration of hydrogen peroxide exceeds 3% is used to wipe the wound, some people will experience temporary discomfort in addition to the tingling of the wound.
Second, it may cause allergic reactions. Some people are allergic to hydrogen peroxide, and after exposure, they will develop rashes, itching, and in severe cases even cause respiratory symptoms, such as asthma and breathing difficulties. Although this allergic reaction is not common, it still needs attention.
Third, long-term or excessive use of hydrogen peroxide may affect the normal physiological function of the skin. Due to its strong oxidative properties, or damage to the stratum corneum of the skin, the skin barrier function is damaged, and the skin becomes more sensitive and more susceptible to external stimuli and infections.
Therefore, when using hydrogen peroxide on the skin, be careful. It is necessary to operate strictly according to the correct concentration and method. If you are not sure, you should consult a professional first to avoid unnecessary damage to the skin.
