Does hydrogen peroxide stop foaming when all the infection is gone.?

The foam has nothing to do with infection. Your blood contains a chemical called peroxidase which breaks down peroxides, including hydrogen peroxide. This is what causes the foam.
The reason hydrogen peroxide is a good disinfectant is that peroxides in general are very bad for living things. The thing that makes it even better is that you can tolerate it a lot better than bacteria can, because your cells can make peroxidase and unicellular organisms for the most part can't.

How do you get burn marks out of fabric?
If a burn mark is fresh on the fabric, you can place it in cold water for 24 hours and rinse it. This may work. However, if this method does not work, then you can wet a white piece of cloth with hydrogen peroxide, put it over the burn mark, and iron over it very lightly. You can repeat the process until the burn mark is completely gone. Before trying this process, you should test the fabric to ensure it will not fade or discolor.
How can you remove the yellow stain left from hydrogen peroxide when you used it to remove another stain?
Soak the item in water and clothes detergent or any type of soap, such as dish detergent. You might have to keep it soaking for a few days. Throw it in with other loads, but do not dry until the stain is gone. Bleach seems to intensify the yellowing.... If the item is white the absolute BEST combination for any type of fabric, including white tennis shoes is a mixture of Tide and Cascade. Your whites will be brighter than ever before.
How do you get red hairdye out of a light oak wooden cabinet?
Red is difficult to get rid of on anything. Try this. Get 40 volume peroxide (available at your local beauty supply house) and pour directly on the stain. Let sit for about 10 minutes, then blot. If you want to make a paste, use a package of streak and tip bleach powder and mix with the peroxide. This should "lift" the stain considerably. Rinse with water and let dry thoroughly. Repeat if necessary until the stain is gone.
How do you get dried blood out of a bed sheet?
You can use hydrogen peroxide to get the blood out of the sheet. Depending how long it has dried will depend on how much blood you can remove. I usually pour some peroxide on the blood, let it foam away for a while, rub it with a small brush, and then repeat 'til either the stain is gone or it doesn't improve any more. For something the size of a bedsheet, I would do this in the bath tub (not on the bed). Then, launder as usual. ^to this answer...I had a terrible headache and i took to many ibuprofen woke up with a nose bleed and blood all over my new bed sheets. I saw this and tried it over my kitchen sink, the blood literally broke apart and just fell out. Came right out! This works better than any cleaner I've ever used to get out blood or other stains. So thank you!

Mix hydrogen peroxide with an equal amount of water. (Half/Half) Gently rub out the stain. If it is on the outside of the skin it will come off. Be careful to not get the peroxide near your eyes. The peroxide will bleach any cloth that it touches.

Can you use hydrogen peroxide as a mouthwash?
AnswerYes you can use 3% hydrogen peroxide on your face. If you have ever suffered from acne and you have those blemishes left behind on your face, know that with the help of peroxide they are not permanent. Do as I did and every night after you have cleaned your face with a facial cleaner like neutrogena or something of that sort, put some peroxide on a cotton ball and scrub your face with it. After some continuous use you will notice that your blemishes are starting to dissapear. Just because your blemishes may be gone don't discontinue the use of the peroxide because it also works as a great facial hair bleacher and facial cleanser!!!

What causes canker soares?
There is no reason why they occur, but they are best treated with a "dab" on a cotton swab, by your physician with sulfur/hydrogen peroxide. It's painful, for a few moments, and the canker soars will "blister" a little --- but they'll be gone. I know --- I've had it done when I was younger and haven't canker soars since. Consult your physician.

Does an antibiotic keep fighting your infection after you finish taking it?
Not for very long. That is why it is important to take your antibiotic as prescribed, even if you think that the infection has gone away. Continuing to take the antibiotic for the full time prescribed keeps the infection from flaring up again; you think it's completely gone, but not quite.

Is the infection gone in your tooth if its no longer hurting?
The pain may be gone, however an infection could still be there. If you are taking antibiotics, you should finish the full course. A follow-up dental visit along with a radiograph (x-ray) is a good idea. If you have done all this already and have no pain or symptoms, then the infection is probably gone. No symptoms for a long period of time is the best way to know for sure.
