need best over the counter remedy for poison ivy

>> No.3294587

the best treatment is to wash the affected area immediately after contact (within 10 minutes if possible) with yellow laundry soap and COLD water or water from a shower. do not bathe in a tub, as could spread the oil. do not scrub wih a brush. remove all your rings and watches and shit before all this try to get some calamine lotion to relieve the itching and burning and dry the area.

if shit is as bad as the picture go to the doc damn it!

No, if you pop blisters it might get infected, you have to leave it like that, also wear a t-shirt when you go out in public so it is in full view and people know not to bump into you so they don't accidentally break the skin.

Doesn camomile lotion work?

Also; i know that isnt op, but if it was, i'd suggest you keep drinking fluids.

I must also explain that if you have blisters like those your probably extreemly allergic. I'd suggest marrying someone who isnt.

Antihistamines and hydrocortisones if you can get 'em. Not quite prescription strength, but should help relieve some of the symptoms, help with itchiness.
