Hello John,

The generators that I am familiar with use a glass syringe that fits through a stopper. This allows for manual addition of small amounts of acid.

Chlorine dioxide gas is an oxidizer. The gas has a higher oxidation potential than the gas in water. In addition, when you elevate the temperature the chemicals react faster. All of this adds up to a chemical that has a lot of oxidation potential and can damage the skin.

Oxidizers work by having a concentration of them in contact with what you are trying to oxidize for a period of time long enough for the oxidation to complete. Chlorine dioxide vapor is difficult to work with because its effectiveness changes with humidity and temperature. It is also expensive to monitor the concentrations in the air. Since chlorine dioxide is heaver than air, you also need some way to stir things up. As a vapor in the air a concentration of 5 PPM is considered immediately dangerous to life and health.

There isn't a lot of information on what concentrations oxidize human skin. Controlling the fumes becomes a big concern and it would be difficult to run tests on this without subjecting the person to dangers.

If you want to check this out, you should first put in place a method to monitor the concentration of chlorine dioxide in the air.

The skin is pretty good at keeping things out. I think it would be difficult to provide a high enough concentration without doing damage to the skin.

The reaction you experienced may have been the bodies response to oxidative stress. While it is an interesting reaction I am not sure there is enough information to draw a conclusion.

An operation is a big decision. You have to weigh the risks and rewards. Since infections can destroy your heart, there seems to be a large risk. It is a tough decision and I wish you the best.

Tom
