I'm new to the site only here becasue i had a run in with poison sumac. I have mad a serious mistake by listining to a home remedy of popping the blister an using a biodegradble degreaser to set on the wound for 10-15 minutes. Lucky for me i have only done this on one spot and it has become a nightmare. I think it has given me a chemical burn an it looks to be healing, but a scar is going to occor. I started out by using a antibotic ointment on it but it wasnt healing i stopped use an it started to scab. it started to become sore an i started to put sum aloe lotion on the area to keep it moist. then all of a sudden it started to ooze an weep again. so i have know idea what to do
Any advice would greatly help
Thank YOu very much
Tony
