Dr. Sugai Explains: Common Wound Care Mistakes Part 1 #shorts

#shorts #woundcare #cutsandburns #hydrogenperoxide #neosporin #drsugaiexplains #skincare #drsugaiskincare

Three wound care mistakes! Hear it from a board-certified dermatologist.

Does rubbing alcohol, hydrogen peroxide and neosporin work for your cuts and burns? Neomycin has a high prevalence rate (9%) of allergic contact dermatitis. I know a lot will say that it has not caused an allergy in them yet but I am just bringing up a common issue I have seen over the years. I prefer a petrolatum based ointment instead over your cuts/burns.

You just destroyed my lifelong whole wound protocol and first aid kit in seconds!!! If you say Band-Aids are bad too, I have to throw the whole thing out!!

[TheCeezSteez]

2 years later and it seems like there’s no part 2?

[ryantyrel]

This guy is like a continuous infomercial 🙄 it's product after products. Use this not that.

[calebducommun]

Repetitive use of peroxide is bad for the wound but you should definitely use it immediately after it happens to clean the area and kill bacteria to prevent further infection.

[jonnyd]

So my 40 Years of all three of these working just fine is nothing? I'll keep my strategies

[michaelbowers]

Ok. Stop doing what we have been told to do for 100 years. Got it. Thanks for the tip on what to use instead

[sallydavidson]

My dermatologist told me that an allergy to neosporin is ranked right under allergies to nickel but people don't realize it causes more problems then helps! I found out the hard way when I contracted pink eye about 20 years ago. I'm allergic to sulfa so they prescribed neosporin eye drops! My eye swelled and I looked like Yoda! No more neosporin for me!!

[Alteori]

UM.... So basically what all doctors have been using forever and still recommend? Yah... X for doubt

[Phillylove]

Okay but what if you’re not allergic to neosporin because you’ve been using it for over a decade without any rashes.

[PhantomrunnerUwU]

I’m tryna figure out why my wound hasn’t closed n now I’m seeing this😂am I gonna be otay?

[LINKISDEAD]

could could could. we grew up with that shit. it work. bet he even use it.

[arieltbits]

@akish4you I remember the hydrogen peroxide and iodine growing up 😖 it was mind blowing to learn about current wound care practices as a nurse. Thanks for the tips. I’m trying to spread the word about neosporin too 🤙🏼

[DoctorLexus]

Yeah maybe don't hide solution buried in your channel next time

[Dr.Aswin]

I am seeing my senior doctor always uses hydrogen peroxide, and iodine to wash the wound, then antibacterial to wound

[TheMoneyMachine-uxol]

they say a wound heals faster on moist environment by using vaseline, antibiotic ointment etc.
in my case it looks like my wound on the face heals faster when letting it scab and dry and just by cleaning with antibacterial soap.

[gwynnkawakami]

Omg. On the farm in Arkansas I got 2” gash running from a chicken that was pushed cuz I took her chick. The gash came from barbed wired which was rusty. My grandfather made them hold me down and poured alcohol in it. Ouch. Brutal. I guess learn through science what to do and not to do. Lol

[simk]

Ok we need that part 2 ASAP ur awesome. Because of your video on comparing retinoids I’m starting a retinoid. Your vids are so helpful because I know I can trust the information you give and you don’t seem to promote anything just for views this is rare these days thanks!

[austincompton]

Epotime of "I sound like I know what im talking about"

[johnkuczmanski]

So, pouring gasoline on an open wound is bad?

[hestia]

Omg. Thankyou! Now i know now that's why my wound won't heal cause im washing it everytime with hydrogen peroxide 😭
