The function of iodine tincture

Iodine tincture is a commonly used disinfectant, and its main components are iodine and alcohol. It has the following effects: 1. Relieves oral infections: Iodine tincture can help alleviate oral infections. When people suffer from oral inflammation, periodontitis, or infectious cheilitis, iodine tincture can be diluted with an appropriate amount of glycerin and then directly applied to the affected area to prevent infection and help reduce inflammation quickly. 2. Relieves onychomycosis (gray nail): Onychomycosis is a common condition in humans, and it is difficult to cure completely once developed. However, iodine tincture can help alleviate and control the condition. Patients can directly apply iodine tincture to the affected nails to prevent further thickening of the nail and to prevent the nail from becoming brittle and loose. 3. Relieves dermatitis: Iodine tincture has excellent anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects. It effectively inhibits and eliminates various types of skin fungi. When seborrheic dermatitis occurs, iodine tincture can be directly applied to the affected area to reduce the production of flaky dandruff.
