Question: Any hints for dealing with poison ivy!?
it itches sooooo muchWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Apply wet compresses or soak the area in cool water for 15 to 30 minutes several times a day!. Do this for 1 to 4 days until the itching and blistering improve!. Compresses or soaking water may include:

* Baking soda!. Add baking soda water to make a solution for a wet compress or mix it with water into a paste and then apply the paste to the rash!.
* Vinegar mixed with water!.
*Take a cold bath in Aveeno or Oatmeal
* Over the counter hydrocortisone products, such as Cortaid, that you spread on your skin!.

Any of the above, or a combination of any should help!. If you start getting oozing blisters, get to the doctor!.

DO NOT use benadryl---

Good luck!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
