Rename Disinfectant to Antiseptic #33387
Conversation
Is it? Most hand sanitizers are 60-70% ethanol. |
|
Yes, and you're not supposed to put that on an open wound. |
|
Fair enough, but the same is true for hydrogen peroxide. |
Wait, wait, WAIT your NOT supposed to put hydrogen peroxide on cuts and wounds? |
|
So there might different concentration of the stuff or whatever, but yes peroxyde hydrogen probably also burn tissue. But like I said we don't currently take that into account and using it for cleaning wound is very common practice, same for alcohol actually |
Under normal circumstances you're not supposed to use any hard antiseptic to clean an open wound. Best to rinse it it with a sterile saline solution or clean it with soap and water, and then apply an antibiotic cream such as a Neosporin. But if there is some really nasty zombie bacteria that you need to kill, it's might be advisable to use a hard antiseptic between cleaning the wound and applying the antibiotic cream. It's sometimes recommended for rabies wounds. |

Additional context
I'm not entierly satisfied with discribing ethanol as an antiseptic as it seems to be a bad idea to use it this way.
Strond disinfectant damage the tissue and actually slow the healing process but we don't model that so I put antiseptic to be consistant for the players.
