Question:
Poison Oak......Any suggestions to kill the constant ITCH....?
hydrocortisone cream and calamine lotions don't even touch it! Neither heat nor cold have worked either.
HELP!
Answers:
Dr. Emily Grant developed a serious and effective formula to help those affected with poison oak. Those who have used it say that it will definitely help you by...
-Reducing the appearance of that embarrassing rash
-Containing the rash
-Relieving the constant itching
-Soothing the burning
-Alleviating the irritation
-Shortening the length of time you’ll be broken out
The name of ehr formula is Sumactin(TM), and you can buy it here: http://www.relieffrompoisonivy.com/index...
Another natural remedy is said to be the leaf of the black nightshade plant (not to be confused with the deadly nightshade). "Chop, grind, or crush it up, mix it with milk or cream, and apply it to the rash," Dr.Tyler says. He says other people have found success using the juice of the milkweed plant. "Just drip the milky latex on the rash."
Maybe not so natural is white shoe polish, which Dr. Tyler reports, contains pipe clay that has effects similar to calamine. Apply it as you would calamine. He says pipe clay can be found in "the old-fashioned shake-it-up kind" of polish. Another ingredient in shoe polish that has the same effect is zinc oxide.
Good luck! :)
