Skin Burns
Applying undiluted apple cider vinegar (ACV) directly to the skin can cause burns and irritation due to its high acidity. This can result in redness, stinging, and even chemical burns, especially on sensitive skin. To safely use ACV topically, always dilute it with water—typically one part ACV to two parts water. Conduct a patch test by applying the diluted solution to a small area of skin and waiting 24 hours to check for adverse reactions. If no irritation occurs, you can use the diluted ACV as a toner or for other skin treatments. Always exercise caution and consult with a healthcare professional if you have any concerns about using ACV on your skin.
