Title: !!HELP with a mixture i made
Post by: konisfilos on July 15, 2019, 06:29:14 PM

Hey guys,
i am new here and i really need your help with something.I dont know if this is the right place to ask but here it goes.
I have a mixture which consists of dmso(~65%),bacteriostatical water(~25%) and liquid iodine(~10%).I first mixed the dmso with the water and let it cool down because the reaction of these two produced some heat.I then added the iodine.

I dont know if mixing the iodine with the other two was a good idea.I planned to firstly apply the dmso to my skin and arround 10-15 later i would apply the iodine so that it would be absorbed transdermally.But i thought that since i am going to use these two at the same area of my skin and one after the other,why dont i just mix the mtogether?And so i did.It's been about 6 weeks since the mixing and the smell of the mixture has slightly changed and also when i apply it to my skin it burns MORE than it did about a month ago.

What should i do?throw it away?what would you do if you were in  my shoes?
