Boric acid can be used as an antiseptic for minor burns or cuts and is sometimes used in dressings or salves. Boric acid is applied in a very dilute solution as an eye wash. Dilute boric acid can be used as a vaginal douche to treat
bacterial vaginosis due to excessive alkalinity,
[28] as well as candidiasis due to non-albicans candida. [29] As an antibacterial compound, boric acid can also be used as an acne treatment. It is also used as prevention of
athlete's foot , by inserting powder in the socks or stockings, and in alcohol solution can be used to treat some kinds of otitis externa (ear infection) in both humans and animals. The preservative in urine sample bottles in the UK is boric acid.

Boric acid solutions used as an eye wash or on abraded skin are known to be toxic, particularly to infants, especially after repeated use; this is because of its slow elimination rate. [30][/quote]
