I am an avid outdoorsman (camping, hiking, etc) and have been since I was a young kid. I have never had poison ivy before, and I know for a fact that I have been around it many times. Needless to say, I am avoiding it from now on.

you can be immune to poison ivy, but caught poison oak or sumac

iv had it swell my eyes and nose shut before. i get it once a year, like clockwork.

Hey man, that sucks. I had the same thing about 4 months ago. My allergist said that it was one of the worst cases he'd ever seen. He gave me a 7 day supply of Pred. and it worked wonders. If you want some of the itching to go away, take a nice hot shower. It feels so good on the affected areas when you blast the hot water on it. It's a very relieving feeling. Also, take a bath in a herbal oatmeal mixture that you can buy at your local pharmacy. You can also, try baking soda; just sprinkle it onto the infected ares and let it sit for about 15 minutes, then wash it off. As Thor said, dont worry if the blisters break open, because thats just body fluid, it won't spead the ivy. After the ivy goes away, you'll have most likely have some scaring in the forms of small blotchy white spots on your body. don't worry, it's not noticeable at all. Hope every thing clears up soon.

Put bleach on it. Find a stick to bite first, but the bleach will clear it up in record time.

looks a whole lot like the poison ivy i got on my knee, after it was infected with impetego (sp?). better make good and sure that its not infected, cause you dont want that. ask your doctor bout that too

[RingOfScale]

[DiSoRdeR]
