Abstract:
The cotton-tipped applicator is a widely available and versatile tool for the dermatologist. In addition to the common uses of this inexpensive tool there are many other ways for the dermatologist to use cotton-tipped applicators. From its usefulness in dermatologic examination and potassium hydroxide preparations to its multiple surgical applications, the cotton-tipped applicator is a valuable and underrated tool.
