I’ve never been allergic to it but last summer I got a little touch of it. Now I have my second batch of it this summer and this round is miserable.

Local pharmacist said to smear Cortisone cream on mine, as I was going to go to the doc for another round of steroid. Worked BETTER than steroid meds. Dried it right up surprisingly fast too.
Just have to get a SMALL fresh tube as it does not retain strength long. |

Go get some Tecnu from Walmart or pharmacy. That is best stuff. Kills the oil in the affected area to keep from spreading. It is what forestry industry uses. HTH Tracy

Sounds like you've become sensitized to the poison. It happens! I've never had more than a couple tiny blisters and I hope it stays that way I use calamine lotion, and try to keep anything from brushing on it for a couple days. |

There is a product called IVAREST, pump type foam you apply if you even suspect you came into contact with any of those nasty plants, or at first signs of symptoms.
Wally World has it. |

We use a product called zanfel
It's a creme that you mix with water, make into a paste then rub it on. It works. Only bad thing is it feels like sandpaper when you rub it on. |

I know cortisone cream is a topical steroid, but it isn't a pill form and dosage is pretty low while it gets right at the problem Tbone.

I have run out to the gas barrel, run a little gas in a gallon can, soaked a rag in the gas and rubbed it on the spot. Its never failed. Next day its dry'd up. Ok for a true story--- best friend was making new fence, got his hands into a bunch of it and didn't realize it. He and the ex crawled in to bed a little later that afternoon. 2 days later she went to the DR. Dr and nurses had a real good laugh. She said it was very uncomfortable to set or walk for several days. She would't rub gas on it.

Best stuff to get rid of it, natural is a plant called jewel weed, a member of the impatiens family, blooms in August, mostly, around here. Stuff grows in low areas, 'round here, like river bottoms. It has a succulent stem, you crush it, in some water, in a 5 gallon bucket, let it set in the sun with a lid on it, fer about half a day, and its RTU. There are some ointments that have it as an ingredient, but IMHO, the real stuff is best.
I have found, that if you know you have touched it, and can get to cold water and lye soap, within 20 minutes, you can lessen or get rid of it, thataway...

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() But back to poison oak, at the cemetery in middle of the of the empire there was a vandalism problem. Mainly cause of all the kids looken for spot to get off the road out in the country to drink beer, an.......... well you can guess. But of coarse what else you going to find in the cemetery after dark when your drinking ![]() ![]() ![]() I use to check that site every once in a while and one year Halloween was on a Friday. All the ghost people decided to have a party out here, ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I am sorry for leading everyone as far off from giving sympathy to Thad for his problems.

Get a bar of Fels-Naptha soap its in the laundry section scrub with it as soon as you notice you e been in poison ivy. It removes the oil from your skin a d greatly reduces the affect.

Charlie, my Mom used to douse us with calamine lotion but I kinda figured it was like the purple pink eye medicine you sprayed on cows, didn't do a damn thing, just let everybody know who had it.

With poison oak even around my yard, the washing good real soon helps a lot. Several times I have asked people "you know that is poison oak right next to you". Only to get "no is that what it looks like,I get it real bad". Have them wash several times with what ever soap is around, and if they get it still much less than they have had in the past,and most none at all. No Shameless I have never planted it. I think it is the birds that eat the little BB size seeds and then leave it all over. I spray it with Roundup real heavy................. but that may ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Edited by Ray54 - 24 May 2019 at 5:01pm |

Speakin of poison ivy,there is a boat load of it growing down by the lane to the back 40(maybe 20). I don't suppose you can just roundup it? Son in law highly suseptical and does some lane mowing down there. One of them "if the wind is blowing....". Wifey would like it gone but I don't think it's that easy.

Roundup will kill it, just follow the directions on the label, and keep in mind roundup kills everything green and growing. sometimes you have to play with the rate, start low, and work your way up. Remember, PI can have a helluva root system, if its been there for years...

We used to put chlorine bleach on Poison Ivy unless it was on your private parts! Technu works great as I get Poison Ivy and have had many treatments. There are other products called Ivy X and Ivy block that work like sunscreen to block the oil from Poison Ivy.
