it can be treated successfully at home!. Initial treatment consists of washing the area with water immediately after contact with the plants!. To relieve symptoms, use wet compresses and take cool baths!. Nonprescription antihistamines and calamine lotion also may help relieve symptoms!. Moderate or severe cases of the rash may require treatment by a doctor, who may prescribe corticosteroid pills, creams, ointments, or shots (injections)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I used to get poison ivy really,really bad!.Someone told me to do this so I tried it and now I hardly get it at all!.I had it all over my legs and it itched so bad I took a hair brush to it and scratched it until it didn't itch any more!.Then I took a cotton ball,soaked it in bleach and put it all over my legs!.I tell you now,it helps if you can sit in front of a fan because this really burns the first time you do it,but don't rub it off or scratch anymore!.Just let it dry, then put it on again!.Once it's dry just leave alone!.You will be surprised how fast this works!.Mine was dried up in the morning and completely gone by the end of the week!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Use Zanfel!. Look it up on drugstore!.com!. CVS and Walgreens also sell and you can get it cheaper if you buy their store brands!. This stuff is incredible!. One of my friends used it who was covered head to toe and this stuff cleared it up in two days!.

Otherwise, use something that will dry out you skin!. This will leach out all of the poison ivy oils!. You can use Calamine lotion or rubbing alcohol (if your skin is inflamed and bleeding, it will STING)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Calomine lotion and plenty of cold showers help ease the pain!. I also put bandaids over it so that I can't itch it!. I dont think that you can really get rid of it, you just have to wait it out!. The lotion and cold water just take away alot of the itching!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
