Question

Hydrogen peroxide should not be used on the cut.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Hydrogen peroxide can be used for the initial cleaning of a wound, such as a small scrape or abrasion.

But it should not be used for large open wounds or deep cuts, or for a long time.

Hydrogen peroxide works by killing bacteria, whether it is “good” healing bacteria or “bad” infection-causing bacteria.
