What if hand senziter does get in sensitive mucosal areas should i be worried
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really worried.: Not generally a big problem. Manufacturers of hand sanitizers don't make their products too caustic for just this reason. Should read the particular manufacturer recommendations about ocular and mucous membrane exposure. Generally these are alcohol based with various minor additives. If they produce symptoms they will produce them quickly.
