@drjoe_md: Are there any good uses for hydrogen peroxide? Yes, it’s great for cleaning up blood stains. However, you should never use it on an open wound as it can cause damage to the cells involved in healing that wound. #hydrogenperoxide #stainremover #woundcare #firstaid

What do YOU recommend using on an open wound to disinfect?

Nevar Krad :

I've been using hydrogen peroxide for years after the initial cut or scrape after that Neosporin or aquifer never had any issues

Jessy Moore :

I think its safe to say that almost ALL OF US grew up being told to use hydrogen peroxide 😭 i never knew the fabric trick though so thank you

rosiesmom ❌❌ :

Over using hydrogen peroxide can cause issues, but for light use and infrequent use…perfect for stopping infections!!

Heather :

I’m an athletic trainer and blood stains are all I use it for 😂

Adrian Sturgill :

That doesn’t make sense. Your white blood cells release H202 (hydrogen peroxide) to kill invaders. That same H202 signals more white blood cells to come aid. So wouldn’t using that actually help?

Jules :

Thank you ! I’ve been preaching this as an RN for over 20 years ! No one listens. 😂

Kind of weird cause I’ve been using it for years and used it to heal my daughter’s pressure sore. Doctor expressed how well it healed dure to using hydrogen peroxide.

unless someone changed the formula. I never had an infection after using it and everything healed without any issue
