9 Surprising Uses For Hydrogen Peroxide

Yes! My dr suggested this to me after I got ATHLETES FOOT TWICE AND QUITE BAD I MUST SAY, ON MY HANDS AND FINGERS FROM MY NAIL SALON GUY NEVER WASHES HIS HANDS AFTER GIVING PEDICURES AND GOING DIRECTLY TO NEXT CLIENT, I NOTICED ( AFTER GETTING THE DIAGNOSIS FROM MY $125.00 DR VISIT AND TESTS! ) AT MY NEXT VISIT FOR MY TRI-WEEKLY MANICURES….

My dr said he sees this ALL THE TIME AND TO CAREFULLY WATCH MY MANICURISTS! Ewwwwwww SO DISGUSTING, NO!??!

He told me to 1. CHANGE SALONS IMMEDIATELY AS THEYRE NOT FOLLOWING SANITATION CODES SET OUT FOR THEM FOR JUST SET REASONS. He said to go have my nail tips and ALL residue removed! Go home, and daily soak my entire hands and wrists (after washing them with BLUE DAWN LIQUID SOAP TO REMOVE ALL OILS FRON MY HANDS AND SCRUB WITH A BRAND NEW, ALSO WASHED WELL IN DAWN ( BLUE ONE, WHY I HAVE NO IDEA, BUT HE SPECIFIED BLUE! ) then soak my hands for 25 minutes in straight up peroxide 70% or above strength. I added 2 cups of water but I don’t know why. It took like 3-dollar store brand bottles. Then to GENTLY pat them dry, ( DO NOT RINSE! ) wait 10 minutes and once every other day using all NEW peroxide ( flush used peroxide down toilet. DO NOT REUSE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE! Anyway, then gently wash my hands with (again, dollar store baby shampoo and rinse well, and pat dry. Then at bedtime apply an over the counter athletes foot cream on my hands every night till it went away but still continue doing the peroxide soak at least 4-6 times even if it seems gone. Apply and rub in athletes foot cream, and put on ( also from dollar store ) those night moisturizing gloves you wear overnight… EVERY NIGHT EVEN IF IT SEEMS GONE! ( I ALSO got the athletes foot cream at the dollar store… lol ) Till I’d finished all the peroxide soaks. It’s NOT COMFORTABLE OR FUN HAVING ATHLETES FOOT ON YOUR HANDS BY ANY MEANS!!! I did exactly what he said except adding the water the first time. I also went to 3 different salons and watched to see if THEY washed their hands WELL, NOT JUST A QUICK RINCE AND FOUND ONLY THE 3rd one had found all the workers washing their hands WELL between clients with ANTIBACTERIAL soap. I began going THERE and have NEVER had it again! I’m sorry this was such a LOOOONG answer but he said it, it cost me $$$$ but it worked! One note, even if you make an appointment at a salon to “check them out” I went EARLY for my appointments and watched ever worker, when I saw they were unsanitary even though the salons were spotless, I saw them NOT following state protocol on their hand washing, I got up, said I was feeling I’ll and left. Just saying… if you’re nervous about your nail tech OR NOT, at least watch next time because it is so uncomfortable having it on your fingers… also this is NOT MY GIVING PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE SO BE AWARE OF THAT RIGHT NOW PLEASE! ASK YOUR OWN PHYSICIANS ADVICE! He stated athletes foot infections can linger in your body for up to a year and can come back and doing what he told me SHOULD PULL OUT THE ROOT CAUSE OF IT THAT CAN STAY UNDERLYING IN YOUR SKIN LAYERS AND LINGER. SO, LONG STORY, NOT SHORT, lol, peroxide I guess COULD “pull out the toxins”. Personally, I have no idea but it worked and that’s all I cared about! One BONUS, it DID make my nails look quite white, like a French manicure look. Although I had to go without new tips for a couple weeks, they grew out healthy and nice and white and obviously CLEAN. AS A SIDE NOTE, HAVING IT ON YOUR HANDS MEANS YOU COULD SPREAD IT TOO TILL ITS COMPLETELY TREATED. JUST SAYING… sorry so long…
