Can hydrogen peroxide be used for a sore throat?

Is peroxide on a sore a chemical change?
Yes, it is. Peroxide, or hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, is a powerful oxidizer. It oxidizes stuff, or causes stuff to combine with the oxygen. The reaction kills bacteria, because they are vulnerable to this destructive chemical. It also "kills" a bit of tissue that is exposed, but not too much. The "big loser" here is any bacterial agent that is exposed to this chemical. When the hydrogen peroxide is put on a wound, oxygen is liberated. That is the reason you see all the bubbles. The H2O2 is unstable, and is being applied as a solution of just a few percent, but the action is fierce. And a good one it is. This stuff is a fabulous "cleaner" of minor wounds, or even major ones. It is applied drop by drop or as a "dribble" to clean out the area of injury before an antiseptic solution or cream is applied or sutures are put on.

Can you get worm lookin bugs festering froman open sore from injecting drugs iv?
No, you cannot get worm looking bugs festering an open sore from injecting drugs intervenously. The reason why the user seems to think that he/she has bugs crawling under the skin is caused by delusions of being infested with parasites caused by the IV drugs. Injecting yourself with drugs can cause hallucinations. But you need to keep the open sore clean, so that the sore doesn't become infected. Hydrogen peroxide is a good disinfectant.
