Asking For Someone else, Other, Female, 28 Years old, lahore
Aoa dr can we use same surgical mask again and again ? Or could we wash it ?
Ideally a surgical mask is a single use mask and should be disposed after one single use. It CAN NOT be washed and uses again under any circumstances.
surgical masks can only be used for 8 to hours and then discard.
nylon or cotton masks are washable and should dry in sun
N95 mask is reusable for 4 to 5days, u can use it for 100days too if u wear surgical mask above covering the N95 but u need to change surgical mask daily
surgical mask are disposible and of single use
Not recommended, use another mask
Surgical mask should be worn single time and then discarded.
Surgical masks are disposable & can't be used more than once.
W.Salam. Such practice is not appreciated. some studies in Norway Suggest one should wear surgical mask for 45 minutes only. Surgical Mask should be disposed off after one use.
walaikumsalam.no you can not reuse a surgical mask,you have discard it after single time usage..
Ideally surgical mask is disposable nd cn b used once
it is disposible mask mean you can not use it again.
but unfortunatly our common people are using it for weeks . if u use it weeks then senitize it with alchol senitizer aur chlorine solution ,so it does not become source of infection
once again idealy it is disposable . once useable.
thank you
walaikumasalaam

walikumusalam..
disposal masks can't be used again and again..
n95 can be used upto 1 week..

no ...if its not disposible sterilize it properly then use ...but disposable cant be used again
Surgical mask is disposable, cannot be used again.
N95, KN95 can be used for 14 days, or jab take uska shape kharab na ho, ya uska indicator na indicate kare.
Cloth mask can be re used after washing magar uski sensitivity achi nahi h
