On the pros and cons of hydrogen peroxide in open wounds
There are wounds in the world, and they open in case of injury. Everyone wants it to heal quickly and avoid pain. There are different opinions on the method of healing and the application of hydrogen peroxide.
In the past, doctors used hydrogen peroxide to treat open wounds. Because hydrogen peroxide encounters catalase in tissues, it decomposes and releases new oxygen. This oxygen has strong oxidizing properties and can kill bacteria in the wound and prevent infection. And when it decomposes, it produces bubbles, which can wash away the blood and foreign bodies in the wound, clean the wound, and make the wound clean and conducive to healing.
However, today's medical community also has a new view on this. Although hydrogen peroxide has the power of sterilization and cleaning, its strong oxidation can also damage the beneficial cells of the wound. The repair of the wound depends on the proliferation and migration of cells. The effect of hydrogen peroxide may cause changes in the local tissue microenvironment, hindering the normal repair process of cells. And repeated use of hydrogen peroxide to rinse the wound, or cause excessive tissue oxidation, leading to increased inflammation and delayed wound healing.
Therefore, the use of hydrogen peroxide in open wounds, when the situation. When the wound is first injured and there are many stains and blood foreign bodies, it can be used to clean and sterilize, but it needs to be moderate and not too frequent. As the wound is gradually healing, a mild disinfectant should be used to protect the tissue and help it repair. When a doctor treats, he should weigh the advantages and disadvantages according to the specific conditions of the wound, and choose the best method to make the patient leave the pain early and recover as before.
