I've had a rash on my neck and face for almost a week now and it seems to have spread. This is my second case of BAD Poison Ivy! The first time and this time, I have had wonderful relief using a product from Aveda, their Calming Nutrients. A friend of mine in LA told me about it. It doesn't take much and really relieves the itch and truly "calms" the inflammation. I apply it about two to three times a day and have had no scarring. You may want to give it a try. It also works on Chicken Pox! I'm also taking Benadryl and Claritin, drinking lots of water and eating apples in an attempt to "clean it out" of my system. Hope this helps! |
