i have read before of using oil to help clear impaction, is it safe to use any type of oil, what works best - corn, vegetable, olive etc. Replies are appreciated.

Beware of dehydration, however, when using it. Pedialite (Either regular or orange, doesn't matter, though I've heard some prefer orange better) is good for re-hydration.
