I woke up this morning with a rash that kind of looks like a rat bite. I've noticed a rat in my room before and I've been using rat poison to try to deal with it. I didn't wake up last night and the wound hasn't bled or anything. Should I be worried or do anything about it?

View allI'm using mustard, olive, almond, jojoba, castor, and coconut oils and I'm thinking about using all of them to help with my hair growth and thickness. Do you think it'd be fine to mix all these oils together and massage them into my scalp, or would it be better to use them individually on different days? I'm mainly wondering if there's any risk of side effects from mixing them since theyre all natural and cold-pressed. What do you suggest?
Mixing different oils for hair growth and thickness can be beneficial as each oil has its own unique properties that can nourish the hair and scalp. You can mix all these oils together for a potent hair treatment. There are generally no side effects to using natural, cold-pressed oils on your hair. You can also rotate the oils if you prefer. For example, you can apply castor oil one day and jojoba oil the next day. This can help ensure that your hair receives a variety of nutrients and benefits from each type of oil. Just make sure to massage the oil into your scalp and hair roots for maximum effectiveness.

I'm dealing with Cheilitis and I'm wondering which lip balm might be better for me - Chaptex or NMFe lip care? Do any of these actually help to cure Cheilitis? I'm just trying to make sure I'm using something effective.
Cheilitis can be treated with a lip balm containing ingredients like petrolatum, beeswax, or dimethicone to help protect and moisturize the lips. In this case, NMFe lip care would be a better option for treating Cheilitis due to its moisturizing properties. Apply NMFe lip care multiple times a day as needed to help alleviate symptoms of Cheilitis.
