What kinds of problems have you had with hydrogen peroxide?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46858points) September 30th, 2018

I’ve used it for decades to help clean out and dry up wounds. It stops infection in its tracks, and I have had 0 problems with it.

Here lately I’ve been hearing that it “kills the new growing skin along with the bad,” and one person even went so far as to say that if you keep using it you wind up with an uninfected hole where you were hurt! I’ve never experienced anything like that.

Have you ever experienced any bad side effects from hydrogen peroxide?
