Does Poison Ivy worsen if you get in a chlorinated pool?

Want to go swimming but have poison ivy.

Does Poison Ivy worsen if you get in a chlorinated pool?
No, in fact it should help dry it out and make it go away faster. Chlorine is powerful when mixed in water, it gets into your skin (only a very small amount) and should help dry out the poison ivy.
Reply:No, the symptoms caused by poison ivy do not worsen but, make sure that none of the sores are open.
