>>1068272I thought that once the rash appears the oil is already well absorbed, and that alcohol can get the oil off you right after contact if you know you touched some poison ivy, and can also dry the blisters, but that neither alcohol nor baking soda would remove the toxin from your skin.
But that's just based on wikipedia reading.
Cold compresses, 50mg of benadryl every 4-6 hrs, baking soda, I still feel like shit and can barely sleep but it's taking the edge off.
>>1068273I dunno I read that the rash only appears to spread, ie some parts of your body have less oil than others and so develop a rash later. The oil is already absorbed below the surface of the skin by the time the rash comes up. The blisters are just full of serum.
