What is the best way to take care of poison ivy blisters?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Keep intact: There are specific products that you can buy that will wash the urushiol off. Some options of treating poison ivy include calamine lotion, oatmeal soaks, Hydrocortisone cream and antihistamines. Try not to pop blisters open as this makes you succeptible to developing an infection.
