I'm really concerned about my 3-month-old daughter's skin. I've been using a massage routine with homemade ghee, and then I apply a mixture of gram flour, raw milk, and turmeric powder after 15 minutes. I want to know if it's safe to use these things daily to help lighten her skin tone. Is this okay for her delicate skin? What would you suggest I do to help her?

So, I'm dealing with chickenpox and it's pretty painful and uncomfortable. I've heard that smoking weed might help with the pain and the uneasiness. Is it okay to try that, or could it make things worse?

No, it is not recommended to smoke weed during Chicken pox as it can have negative effects on your immune system and overall health. Instead, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as Acetaminophen (Tylenol) to help with the pain and discomfort. Additionally, you can use calamine lotion or oatmeal baths to soothe the itching. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest to help your body recover from Chicken pox.
