Hey Folks,
I got poison ivy at a church workday Saturday (4 days ago) severely on all 4 limbs. Here is the odd thing, all the rashes seem to just have exploded. They pretty much don't itch at all, but the oozing is uncontrollable. It will soak through one of the extra large bandaids in 5 minutes. I will sit with my leg propped somewhere and it will simply drip into a large puddle and accumulate like icicles off my leg.
It's to the point now where I am not showering and just letting the ooze dry and plug itself. However, the worst oozing spots refuse to dry up. The worse patch covers the side and back of my knee and I can no longer bend it.
I think this may have been caused by my scratching it in my sleep, but I don't believe I scratched it this bad. The oozing is literally uncontrollable. My knee still makes puddles after I let it dry for a day.
Do I need to get some Zanafel and use conventional treatments? Like I said earlier, it no longer itches but there are still some visible blisters. My leg is completely immobile and I would like to figure out how to stop this oozing.
Thanks.
