Best remedy for poison ivy? Happy spring!! Lol. We tried calamine lotion, it’s taking forever to dry up and it seems to be spreading. My son is 6 so he is basically feral and scratching nonstop! Thanks in advance

I’ve always dug it open and then went swimming or taken a bleach bath

My son landscapes and still dies the scratch it open and spray with bleach water and it’s gone by morning.
It gets in your blood stream and spreads through your whole body. Go to the doctor and get steroids and a cream. I’ve been battling it for a month now. My dog keeps getting in it and I keep getting it over and over after being immune for 38 years.

when my oldest girl was little the Dr gave he some steroids to get rid of it, i think she took them for maybe 3 days and it was soon gone
It took mine 3 weeks to heal. Not much helped it.
Rubbing alcohol. Open the spots and pour it in.

Get prednisone from the doctor.
Dry out with rubbing alcohol
Dawn dish soap and take him to the doctor. If he touches his face it will spread on his face and could go in his eyes.
