A member asked:
Can you get poison ivy in your lungs from burning in a yard full of ivy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
YES- can be fatal!: One should never burn poison ivy. The smoke contains the oil and when inhaled it can cause a very serious, even potentially fatal reaction. This is a medical emergency that requires immediate treatment! see http://www.Poison-ivy.Org/html/faq.Htm.
