For the last 30 years I have seen the bad result of using povidone iodine in dressing wounds. Many form scubs with the wound unhealed underneath and pus forming in it. I have since nonhealing wounds due to constant use of povidone iodine. But if you walk into an emergency room, most of not all hospital personnel would use povidone iodine instead of ordinary soap and water to clean wound. Many people accuse the medical profession to be stagnant and difficult to adjust to the current trend. I don't know how we could adjust fast.
