Abstract

Lysol is a commercially available product commonly used for cleaning and disinfectant purposes. Although in lower concentrations they may not causing ill effects on human being. In higher concentrations or in undiluted forms they will produce adverse health effects. Lysol induced skin burns are not commonly described in literature and no specific management protocols have been described. Here we are sharing our experience on Lysol burns and its management.

Keywords: Lysol; Chemical Burn.
