Doctor, you may want to point out that hydrogen peroxide solution exists in various strengths. Somebody might go and pour some rather corrosive 35% strength solution into his ears and not like the result very much.
Besides, H2O2 is cytotoxic and may delay wound healing. I wouldn't use H2O2 for anything but disinfection of minor scrapes and cuts.
