Are you asking about hypochlorous acid (HOCl) spray for eczema? It's worth clarifying since "hyperchloric" isn't a standard term β but hypochlorous spray is a popular topic in the eczema community!
Hypochlorous acid spray is a mild antiseptic that some people with eczema use to help manage symptoms like itching, oozing, and potential skin infections. It mimics a substance naturally produced by the body to fight bacteria.
Here's what's generally noted about it:
- Antimicrobial properties β it can help reduce bacteria on the skin, which is important since broken eczema skin is vulnerable to infection
- Anti-itch relief β many users report it calms itching relatively quickly
- Gentle formula β it's generally considered mild enough for sensitive, compromised skin
- Cooling effect β it may help soothe inflamed or warm skin
One MyEczemaTeam member shared a similar experience with a lidocaine-based antiseptic spray, noting that itching calmed almost immediately and suspected infection symptoms like oozing and warmth improved noticeably.
Always do a small patch test first and check with a dermatologist or pharmacist before adding any new spray to your routine β especially on open or broken skin.
