An online survey on the association between the use of alcohol-based hand sanitizer and dermatitis in the Jizan Population
This study demonstrated a clear association between frequent or high-concentration sanitizer use and increased dermatitis prevalence among Jizan residents. Public awareness campaigns and product guidelines are needed to promote proper usage of techniques that balance hygiene and skin health. Future research should explore effective prevention strategies, such as moisturizer combinations or lower risk alternatives.
