Hydrogen peroxide is used on minor cuts and scrapes because it acts as an antiseptic. It helps kill bacteria and prevent infection. Additionally, it can help remove debris and dirt from the wound, promoting healing. However, it should be used with caution and in moderation, as excessive use can delay wound healing.
It helps to clean and disinfect an open wound. Works wonders and doesn't sting like isopropyl alcohol would. Do NOT use hydrogen peroxide on human flesh or pets! It kills healthy cells! Not a big issue for minor scraps as it will disinfect, but never use on lacerations or deep wounds.
The best thing to clean up cuts and scrapes is peroxide or betadine. Then apply neosporin and a band aid to help prevent infection.
Vodka should make a good disinfectant, and the higher the proof the better. This is similar to using rubbing alcohol to disinfect wounds. Be aware, however, that alcohol dries out the skin more than peroxide and can irritate wounds. Also, use plain vodka - save the flavored ones for drinking.

If someone has just fallen and scraped their knees or cut themselves, what do you do? Here are some ways to treat minor scrapes and cuts and get that person on the road to recovery.Inspect ItThe first thing that needs to be done is to look at the scrape or cut and see if there are any slivers or pebbles that may have stuck inside of it. If so, dip tweezers into rubbing alcohol and pull the slivers or pebbles out from the area. Re-apply the alcohol each time you pull an item out. The rubbing alcohol will help to avoid a bacterial infection from occurring later.Hydrogen Peroxide WashWhen there is nothing stuck in the cut or scrape, the next step is to thoroughly rinse the area with hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is an antimicrobial agent that will help prevent any infections from developing inside of the wound. Hydrogen peroxide can be placed onto a cotton ball or gauze and just dabbed a few times on the area to clean it out and get rid of any excess blood.Examine ItAfter inspecting and washing the area, look at the area again to see if blood is gushing out or slowly streaming out. If blood is gushing out, the wound is definitely not minor, and a trip to the ER or a physician is in order. If it’s a small stream, it is best to take gauze and add some light pressure to the area. The blood should soon stop - it is then best to rewash the area with hydrogen peroxide.NeosporinAdd some Neosporin to the area, since hydrogen peroxide is only an antimicrobial agent and not an antibacterial ointment. Neosporin will give the cut or scrape an antibacterial treatment and prevent it from scarring. Before placing an adhesive strip over the area, allow the cut or scrape to air out with the Neosporin on it.Adhesive StripAdd the adhesive strip very gently. Make sure that it is not on the area too tightly, as air will help heal the wound as well. Be sure to keep an on-hand supply of various sizes of adhesives, since you may have to adjust the size of the adhesive to that of the scrape or cut.
It depends on the severity. If they are just puncture holes or small scrapes you can clean the area with soap and water then apply Neosporin or a triple anti-biotic. Anything more then that should be seen by a veterinarian. Check into a ER Vet. Most vets and doctors discourage the use of hydrogen peroxide in puncture wounds. Peroxide in a puncture can trigger a gas embolism, and may also delay the healing process. For more information on how to dress a wound, see the related links below.
