On the advantages and disadvantages of using hydrogen peroxide for wounds
The treatment of wounds and the application of hydrogen peroxide have been discussed by many people. Its advantages and disadvantages.
Looking at its advantages, hydrogen peroxide decomposes and releases oxygen when it encounters blood and necrotic tissue in the wound. This oxygen can create an environment that is not conducive to the growth of anaerobic bacteria, so it can prevent the infection of anaerobic bacteria, especially in deep and narrow wounds. And when it decomposes, the bubbles tumble, which can rinse away the filth of the wound, achieving the effect of cleaning, making the wound clean and conducive to healing.
However, it also has many drawbacks. Hydrogen peroxide has a certain degree of irritation. When applied to the wound, the injured often feel severe pain. The pain is not light, and it is even unbearable for the injured. And excessive or improper use will harm the healing of the wound. Because of its strong oxidizing properties, when killing bacteria, it also hurts the normal tissue cells of the wound, slowing the healing process.
To sum up, the doctor should be cautious when using hydrogen peroxide in the wound. Detailed observation of the condition of the wound, such as depth, size, degree of pollution, weighing the pros and cons, to determine whether to use it or not, and the amount and method used can make the treatment of hydrogen peroxide in the wound, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and promote the early recovery of the injured.
