Is Peroxide Safe for Mesh After Hernia Surgery?

Posted by Annie (North Carolina) on 02/12/2020

I am considering using the Fd. Grade H202 for Lymes Disease and arthritis but I do have the mesh in my body from 2 hernia surgeries years ago. Would this cause a problem? Thank you! Annie

I may not be helping but I have looked around for you. My first internal thought is ask a pharmacist. I have asked them lots of questions over the years. They have a lot of education.

Hi Annie! I'm no expert, but that would probably be ok. Peroxide breaks down organic matter, and your mesh is likely not organic or your body would dissolve it.
