On the effect of hydrogen peroxide on oral ulcers
Oral ulcers are common oral diseases. Patients often feel pain and discomfort, which affects eating and speech. Hydrogen peroxide has a unique effect in dealing with oral ulcers.
Hydrogen peroxide is highly oxidizing. It is used in oral ulcers and can react quickly by coming into contact with the wound. During the reaction process, hydrogen peroxide decomposes to produce oxygen. This oxygen bubble can mechanically clean the surface of the ulcer, remove dirt, bacteria and necrotic tissue on the surface, and create a relatively clean environment for ulcer healing, just like a gentle cleaning.
At the same time, the strong oxidation of hydrogen peroxide can damage the cell wall, cell membrane and internal structure of bacteria, effectively killing all kinds of bacteria that cause ulcer infection, such as common Staphylococcus aureus, streptococcus, etc., thereby inhibiting the development of inflammation and reducing the redness, swelling and pain caused by bacterial growth.
Furthermore, appropriate use of hydrogen peroxide can promote local blood circulation to a certain extent. When the environment on the surface of the ulcer is improved, the bacteria are suppressed, and the local blood supply is smoother, which can bring more nutrients and immune cells to the ulcer tissue, accelerate tissue repair and regeneration, and promote faster healing of the ulcer.
However, the use of hydrogen peroxide should also be cautious. Excessive concentrations of hydrogen peroxide may cause excessive irritation to the oral mucosa and aggravate damage. Therefore, it is generally necessary to dilute it to a suitable concentration, usually about 3% of medical hydrogen peroxide, and the frequency of use should not be too high, 2-3 times a day can be used to avoid excessive use and affect the normal physiological environment of the mouth.
In short, hydrogen peroxide in the care and treatment of oral ulcers, with cleaning, sterilization and promoting healing, can be an effective means to help recovery, but rational use is the key.
