A member asked:
Could blowing my nose with a leaf have any adverse effects?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tissue paper: While the best choice would obviously be a facial tissue or toilet paper, a leaf could be an effective alternative. There is a big depends, though. It depends on your choice of leaves. There are many that could be safe, but many that would not be. If you haven't had itching or rash from where it contacted your face, you'll probably be okay. If you need again, use a part of your clothes.
