Dear Rochelle,
You wrote:
Painting like this, do you think there is much difference between "internal" and "external"? Why-what are you doing except giving a dose of iodine? It's not as if you were painting iodine on some surface scratch to disinfect it... (in which case 1-3 days of disinfecting the skin would be quite harmless)
Painting the throat is to have iodine absorbed by the thyroid. - it's an internal dose, no? And you're doing it for an extended period, yes?
(eg if someone is wearing a "nicotine patch" - or birth control implants - is it not an "internal" dose of medicine - even if administered through the skin? )
Sincerely,
