I have an old bottle of Iodine that has a special "straw-like" applicator that seems to hold a very small amount of iodine. It does not drip because the straw is open only on one end but when it touches the skin a small amount comes out. I dumped the old Iodine out and replaced it with Lugols. It works great for treatment for small moles or hard to get to places. 48124
