It is not safe to use industrial-grade DMSO on humans.
Industrial-grade dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is used as a solvent in plastics, resins, and other industrial processes. This type of DMSO may contain significant amounts of unknown toxic impurities. The most common and hazardous impurity is dimethyl sulfone (MSM), and it may also contain various heavy metals, solvents, or chemical byproducts from the manufacturing process. Direct contact DMSO solvent can lead to poisoning, organ damage, and severe allergic reactions.
