I have not personally seen it happen but it is theoretically possible. I have however recently seen a patient (65 year old man) who came into hospital with an INR of greater than 10. This man was taking warfarin for a medical condition and had taken too much. Warfarin reduces how easily/quickly the blood clots. The INR measurers how well your blood clots. Normal range should be about 2. This man was given an injection of Vit K (2mg) and in 2 days his INR was down to 1.3. and needed quite a large dose of warfarin to bring things back to normal
I don’t wash off the vernix. It is a great moisturiser.
