Hi Joe -

Young bamboo plants can cause dermatitis. Here's my response on the board about bamboo with an informational link:

Bamboo??

I've found references about causing irritation but I haven't found any references about treatment. If you find the rash is unbearable or is in sensitive places, you should probably consult with your doctor for further treatment options.

Hope this helps!
