silver nitrate sticks 50% 115mm 100 pcs

Silver nitrate is used for cauterization, which is a process of burning the skin to stop bleeding or prevent a wound from becoming infected. It is also used to remove granulation tissue (pink, lumpy tissue over a healing wound) or warts on the skin. The chemical reaction of silver nitrate permanently destroys the target tissue. Silver nitrate sticks can also be used for anterior epistaxis (epistaxis) as the stick is applied to the blood vessel or mucous membrane in the nostril to control epistaxis.In addition, they can be applied to cervical incisions after biopsy or cervical ectropion, to treat granulation tissue in wounds and stoma sites, in painful aphthous stomatitis. Silver nitrate can be applied to chronic wounds to aid healing, as it can renew the healing process with its astringent and caustic action. The purpose of using potassium nitrate is to moderate the effect of silver nitrate

When soaked in water the tip will turn white or light gray and then it is ready to use
You should not apply pressure or rub the area with the stick, instead it is dabbed several times with the stick
