Grind up aspirin and make into a paste with a small amount of water. Place this paste on the rash and allow to dry. The salicylic acid can help to speed healing.
.baking soda. Just sprinkle it on. Ivy is acid, soda is base=neutralization >> this was posted above just make a paste using both aspirin and baking soda. Will dry it up in a hurry.

too late for this episode, but the guys at work swear by Oral Ivy as a preventative (pre-exposure).
I use it, and think it works. I was just told about this stuff last week. I’m going to buy some and give it a shot. I get it so bad every year it ruins my life for 2 weeks. I already got a rash about 3 weeks ago with 20” of snow on the ground!
Cold as ice!

Not sure what I got into yesterday. About 2-3in grass right next to a beaver dam. Placed my hand in it to steady myself while I made a castor mound set. INSTANTLY my wrist started prickling like I was in stinging nettle; with in a minute had several small blisters. Went up to the shop, washed it off, poured white vinegar over it. Did the same about an hour later and took two benadryl. Blisters were gone but kept tingling. That was about 5pm. 10pm just a little bit of redness left and still was tingling and prickly until about midnight. Wished I knew what it was. Can't see anything but short new growth grass.
Just livin' the dream...and paying full price for it!

S I hit it with as hot of water as you can stand, paper towel dry it, then hit it with rubbing alcohol. Heat is not your friend. Cold is. Heat will make the itch a lot worse. Cold , saltwater soaks to alleviate the itch and to dry it. Aaron Priffitt is correct. Hot water will move that poison ivy oil to all parts of your body. When I got into it, before it manifested itself, I used cool water and Fels Naptha soap to wash off the oil. Never had a rash.

Northof50, appreciate the idea but that hand never touched the water. Just put my hand against the grassy bank to steady myself. I've been down there 3 times today trying to i.d. something besides grass. Weird deal for sure.

Prednisone. When I planted trees as a young man I was in thickets of poison oak and didn't get it by consuming lots of prednisone.
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!
