The therapeutic effect of blue grains solution is based on its strong oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties, which are due to chemical reactions.

Potassium permanganate is used in traditional and alternative medicine, cosmetology, gardening…Travelers often take the powder with them for wound and drinking water disinfection.
For rinsing and treating skin injuries (wounds, blisters, cuts, festering) it is important to properly prepare the blue grains solution.

For this purpose, dissolve about 10 crystals completely in 1 liter of water. Then adjust the concentration based on the color of the liquid: it should be light pink.

Remember that a stronger solution can cause mucous membrane burns. It is especially important that no whole crystals remain in the liquid: contact with skin can also cause burns.
Using blue grains

1. Abrasions, scratches, insect bites, skin inflammations (chickenpox, pimples), at the first signs of bedsores: clean the skin with a cotton swab soaked in light pink blue grains solution.
2. For faster elimination of herpes and stomatitis, spray the affected areas with blue grains solution in a barely noticeable shade.
