Ok, so yesterday i was in the woods with my friend and there was alot of poison ivy around. We were trying to be careful not to touch it. But last night, my hand starting itching (on my palm) and there was something that looked like a bugbite in the middle, so i just left it alone. but then, a few other little bumps started appearing around it. My hand is really itchy now. Does anyone know if its poison ivy? i woudn't know because i have never had it. Also, do you know any itch creams that work really good?
Is it Poison Ivy?
It most likely is, what you should do in the future, is take rubbing alcohol to prevent to oils from spreading.. please know that once the oils has been washed off (you showering) it isnt contagious. to help with the itch use Caladryl CLEAR
please know, if you dont shower or use alcohol and scratch it, it will spread...
only sleep with a sheet
Reply:Yes it sounds like Poison ivy, I take benadryl and I put hydrocordazone cream on it. Oh yeah if you went to bed after being outside without a shower your sheets need to washed. The oils from the poison ivy will get on your sheets and make it spread when you sleep.
