Question 2

hi i have gotten acne burns on my face from using toothpaste to treat acne. how do i get these burns to heal and fade away?

Accepted Answer

Time: Toothpaste did not cause burns. The lesions from acne will take time to heal. Best is to not do anything. If you have money to spare, you may see a dermatologist for treatment.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex. 
Get HPV vaccine.

Question 3

how to heal toothpaste burn on face? can i use vasaline?

Accepted Answer

Toothpaste burn?: All i can think of would be some type of reaction to a flavoring or other ingredient or possible allergy?  I have not heard of that before.  Vaseline would not be a problem but if it is an allergic problem, then Benadryl (diphenhydramine) or cortizone ointment may be better.

Question 4

i used toothpaste on my face and it left a burn so what should i use to get it healed and how long will it take. plus i need to use foundation

Accepted Answer

Not good idea: Using any toothpaste for your acne can cause more redness and irritation. Please don't ever do this to your face, save the toothpaste for your teeth only. See your PCP for examination.

Question 5

i burned my face using toothpaste to get rid of a pimple now i have a weird burn and i'm going on vacation in 2 days?

Accepted Answer

Skin care: Avoid placing any other abrasive creams on your face for now.  The use of the toothpaste should have dried out the pimple and your skin will need to heal by it peeling off at that spot.  Keep your skin clean &amp; hydrated and avoid any soaps that can strip your skin of its natural oils.  These are needed to keep your skin hydrated and healthy as well as prevent bacteria buildup. Best of luck

Accepted Answer

STOP: Tooth paste should be used ONLY inside your mouth.  Can create burn-like lesions if used on exposed skin.  Please see your Physician or Urgent Care for examination, differential diagnosis, and appropriate treatment.

Question 10

somehow snorted toothpaste up my nose while brushing. feels like it's in my sinuses & burns; blowing nose & gargling help. is this harmful?  thanks!

Accepted Answer

Sinus Irrigation: The membranes of the sinus are very similar to the membranes of the mouth, so no real "damage" will occur.  Inflammation on the other hand is a distinct possibility, as the sinus membranes are a bit more sensitive to flavoring additives and such found in toothpaste.  Do sinus irrigations multiple times (3-4) immediately, then 3-4 over the course of the day, as needed.  That should solve the issue.
