Usage of oil on face depends on skin type. In persons with oily skin, additional application of oil must be avoided to prevent clogging of pores. In persons with dry or flaky skin, any natural oils may be used in moderation to mosturize the skin. Coconut oil, almond oil are some of the natural oils which are good for skin.

I'm really worried because I donated blood on Monday morning, and the next day I woke up with terrible itching and red spots and bumps, mostly on my thighs but some in other areas too. I took an Avil tablet in the morning, and it helped a bit, but by night, the itchiness came back. It's unbearable. Do you have any idea what might be causing this and how I can make it stop?

The itching and rash you're experiencing after donating blood could be an allergic reaction to the anticoagulant or other substances used in the blood collection process; continue taking Avil (antihistamine) as directed, apply topical calamine lotion or hydrocortisone cream to affected areas
