Hydrogen peroxide - Medical-use solution used for its disinfection effects and for stopping small bleedings consecutive to scratched, crushed wounds, punctures, or as a consequence of blows followed by the appearance of small-medium skin or mucous membrane lesions (epistaxis).
Iodine - It is used in the disinfection of medical material, the antisepsis of skin lesions, the treatment of inflammations and infections of mucous membranes.
Physiological saline is sterile, but it does not have antiseptic or disinfectant properties.
Drinking water, besides the fact that it does not have antiseptic or disinfectant properties, may contain impurities or microorganisms that must not reach the wound.
