Fuck poison ivy (hexbear.net)
submitted 1 week ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I've had it for about a week now, I've kept the outbreak from getting too bad but it still itches so bad, and I have it EVERYWHERE. On my face and lips, I have a patch in my ear, on my dick, all over my hands and arms, everything is suffering. I already washed myself with dish soap so it's not spreading anymore but goddamn if this isn't hell

I heard that the poison ivy chemical is greasy like engine oil and that you similarly have to use degreasing soap to remove it, rather than normal hand or dish soap. Those scrubby napkins that mechanics use should work to clean it off. Not that it's any help now.
