Dealing with image degradation in old negatives?

The image link below goes to an enlarged portion of a scanned negative from the mid 1980s. One of the strange things I see are small spots like photo grain that have turned yellow.

I've considered selecting by color and changing them to flesh tone or gray, or carefully using Gaussian blur, wavelet decompose, etc. (Someone I know wants to publish the entire image.)

Any comments before I proceed?
