I would not put dettol on your body? Unless I am mistaken this is a chemical used for cleaning

in reply toTdgx

No, it's an antiseptic, but I wouldn't use it 'neat'.

Oh okay. Dettol in my country is what you would use to wipe your kitchen benches or your toilet.

in reply toTdgx

Yes, you can get in the form of domestic wipes, and use it for washing down surfaces, etc. When I was growing up, it was diluted in water for used for washing cuts and abrasions etc, and when I was able to access a bathtub would put a couple of capfuls in the bathwater. Now I have to use a shower, so that's no longer an option. It is certain too strong to use neat on the skin though, especially on a penis. Best wishes, Sine :)

Dettol is definitely TOO strong in my opinion and do not use it on the glans. Please only use non irritant non fragrant mild soaps only . You might cause burns or irritant dermatitis if you use products like dettol . Take care !

Hi zack under no circumstances put dettol on your Willy if you want to wash him the best stuff is DERMOL 200 this can be used to shower dry off and re apply also vaseline and coconut oil which is very good for sex masterbation and massage very good for your skin take care

Why the 'VOLVO' insignia? Just wondering...

Never use Dettol (or other strong antiseptic) on a newly healing wound as it actually destroys new skin.

It is fine for use diluted when cleaning a new cut which might be dirty, but the cut should then be allowed to heal without such strong antiseptics.

Not what you're looking for?
