Can the skin heal itself if it is corroded with too much iodophor?

  The skin lesions caused by iodophor are usually self-healing, usually after stopping the application of iodophor and keeping the local moist can slowly get better by itself.  Iodophor is a broad-spectrum antiseptic, generally has no corrosive effect on the skin, and is a commonly used clinical antiseptic, which can be used for the disinfection of skin and mucous membranes, as well as for burns and skin mold infections. It can be used for surgery or instruments, local puncture and injection. It is more easily accepted by patients because it causes less irritation. However, some patients may experience local peeling after applying iodophor, mainly due to dry skin caused by excessive application. At this time, stop applying, rinse with water and apply moisturizing cream to recover on your own. In the short term, pigmentation may occur in very few patients, but there will be no other adverse effects.  In addition, if the skin peeling caused by iodophor, persists, it is recommended to promptly hospital dermatology consultation, under the guidance of the appropriate measures.
