Long-term bedridden patients, due to the back, waist and hip continued pressure, prone to bedsores. A small amount of alcohol with a concentration of 40% to 50% is poured on the hand, and the pressure part of the patient is evenly massaged to promote local blood circulation and prevent the formation of bedsores. Alcohol with a concentration of 25% to 50% is mainly used for physical antipyretic. Use alcohol wet gauze or small soft towel to turn it to semi-dry, and gently wipe the neck, chest, arms and legs of patients with high fever. The purpose of cooling can be achieved. Wiping the skin with alcohol can expand the blood vessels of the skin and increase the heat dissipation capacity. The volatilization of alcohol can also absorb and take away a lot of heat, thereby alleviating the patient's fever symptoms. But the concentration of alcohol should not be too high, otherwise it will stimulate the skin and take away a lot of water from the epidermis.

Iodine tincture can be used for skin disinfection, for example, before blood injection, with iodine tincture to disinfect the skin. Iodine at a concentration of 2% is often used to disinfect intact skin, but should be deiodinated with 75% alcohol 2-3 minutes after use. Iodophors at a concentration of 0.5 per cent can be used for skin disinfection, cuts, abrasions, bruises and other general types of trauma. After soaking with a clean cotton swab, disinfect the wound from the inside out. However, iodophor does not contain alcohol, it is not easy to penetrate grease, and it is not as good as iodine and alcohol for disinfection of oily scalp and other grease parts. Although iodophor has a wide range of applications, there are still several points to note: patients with renal insufficiency and patients with burn area greater than 20% should not be used; Iodophor should not be used together with mercurochrome (commonly known as mercurochrome). At the same time, the bactericidal effect of iodophor is rapid, but the diluted solution is unstable and should be stored at room temperature in the dark. Guangxi Medical Devices

It is not suitable for oral wounds, deep wounds or wounds with large infected areas and suppuration.
