I've been traveling a lot for work lately and I've started getting these pesky blackheads on my nose. I heard somewhere that toothpaste might work to get rid of them, but I'm not sure if that's actually true or if it's safe. Could you tell me if using toothpaste is a good idea for treating blackheads, and if so, how should I use it?

I've been dealing with this weird reaction tiny itchy red bumps after using fast relief on my left knee. So I switched to Volini spray, but it gave me rashes on my right leg. Any idea what's causing these skin issues? And do you know of a pain relief ointment that's maybe a bit gentler or less allergenic? I've been applying aloe gel to soothe the rashes and the bumps have gotten better, but the itching is still really bothering me. What can I do about it?

Question

I'm really worried about my mom. She had submucous fibrosis a few years back and got it treated, but now it seems to be happening again with her skin. Do you think homeopathy could help with this condition? How long might it take for the treatment to be effective this time? It's just so frustrating that this problem keeps coming back.
