Hello! I work as a doctor for 21 years. My name is George O. Sapego. This article will tell you about how you take for a ride by foreign articles about hydrogen peroxide.
It was somewhere here in our popular article which advised throw hydrogen peroxide from the medicine cabinet. Write that trohprotsentny hydrogen peroxide solution, which is often found in the home first aid kits, in terms of treatment of wounds practically useless. And examples of the study (see link below).
Here comes the new, not the familiar welcome. The author gives a link to the abstract of the article, which is not publicly available. Good move! He thinks that the reader will not find the source and do not read. But I found it and read it. Colleagues who work in foreign universities, are divided into such articles. You can see the full text of this article at the link below.
And what's up with peroxide? And there peroxide criticized in terms of what it is burning and promotes healing. Can you imagine? Well, that is some antiseptic to the wounds are gently. Tickle them and stimulate healing. But peroxide acts rude. She just prishparivaet microbes. Personally, I'm satisfied with this option. While we are talking about small wounds prefer guaranteed to cauterize the infection in them.
Have any of you, dear readers, your child skinned knees peroxide watered? So what? Children writhing and fainting from the pain? Of course not! Poschiplet and pass.
Burning antiseptics may harm only some bedsores and diabetic ulcers. That is, in situations where a very long time, and every day you need to handle these ulcers.
Then, the author states that the hydrogen peroxide with antiseptic point of view is not the best choice. Because microorganisms contain enzymes that break down the peroxide. But this is a lie. In the English-language study tried peroxide diluted to such an extent that it and the wound is not too burned, and microbes do not decompose. But it did not. Weak hydrogen peroxide solutions on microbes do not operate. But the standard of 3% peroxide from a pharmacy and acts very well.
Americans and said:
... Over-the-counter, 3% H2O2 solutions equate to a concentration of 0.88 mol / L, well above our exposure concentrations ...
That is, the concentration of pharmacies peroxide is higher than that which they studied. And then those same Americans say:
... we are not advocating the removal of antiseptics from the wound bed management arsenal ...
That is, they do not stand for something, to remove the hydrogen peroxide from the set of the funds, which the wound is treated. Well, actually, we wanted to prove.
And you, dear readers, doubt? Hydrogen peroxide is a very good antiseptic. It does not harm the environment. From it is only water. And then, the scratches and wounds heal a little bit slower, it's not a fact. This is not about people with diabetes who have wounds heal for months. We are with you it is important that a cat scratches on the children's little hands do not fester. Do you agree?
