Poison ivy?
Take benedryl orally to reduce the swelling and help with the itching.
Also, buy a creme or gel that has an antihistime in it. This works better than caladry.
Hot water, (wring out a washcloth) placed over the poison ivy will release histimes and take away the itch temporairly.
Be sure to wash thoroughly with soap to keep from spreading the microscopic oils that bring on the blisters.
Wash all clothing she has touched as well as sheets in hot water.
And finally, learn to recognize the plant.

Reply:there are creams you can get at the pharmacy without a prescription to get rid of it.
Reply:take a bath with oatmeal. I know it sounds weird, but it works. Get a couple of packs of regular oatmeal and pour it in the bath with you. Bath like you normally would and then rinse off. It doesn't totally get rid of it, but it speeds up the healing.
