cauterant การใช้

• Silver nitrate has also been used as a chemical cauterant.
• Silver nitrate, sometimes used for pain relief from aphthous ulceration, acts as a chemical cauterant and destroys nerve endings, but the mucosal damage is increased.
• Blemishes and discolorations ( such as bruises, in which the discoloration is not in the circulatory system, and cannot be removed by arterial injection ) occasioned by the last illness, the settling of blood, or the embalming process itself are also dealt with at this time ( although some embalmers utilize hypodermic bleaching agents, such as phenol-based cauterants, during injection to lighten discoloration and allow easier cosmetizing ).
