I was on a mission trip recently and had to pull up some poison ivy. I was wearing long pants and gloves, but believe I may have gotten some on my arms and possibly a patch on my side as I had to lay down to pull it. Immediatly after I pulled it up I cleaned my arms with hand sanatizer, as it's all I had access to. Was that bad? I'm also wondering what I can do to take care of the itch and how long before it will go away.
It's not alot, just a small place on my side and a few isolated areas on my arms (one around the elbow, the worst, and a second area around my wrist on the side of my arm.) Will it go away without me needing to see a doctor? |
