A doctor has provided 1 answer
Takes time: The blistering effect of poison oak or ivy produces a significant injury to the skin. It will take one to two weeks or more to fully disappear regardless of your treatment. Avoid scratching and use a mile steroid cream if desired, but this is not going to be gone over a few days.
