A member asked:

Yesterday i posted a question in regards to the poison ivy on my face my left eye is almost completely swelled shut and today the stuff i'm coughing is blue. what does that mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I see no link of poison ivy exposure to a cough. The tissue of the face & surrounding the eye is less tolerant to irritants and capable of more swelling. I would contact your doc & seed if they agree a brief course of prednisone is needed.
