this is very true
but ....the water is a bit cold for "BATHING" thus Far.

when i grew up at the beach our house lot was a veritable poison Ivy
JUNGLE and subsequently i had it ALWAYS and later became an expert
at killing it .and ridding my body of it... (i am HIGHLY Alergic to it)
(as it is said "if i even LOOK at it......... I have it")

if your covered Paul , you need Prednezone (prescription)steroids to turn the tide back in your favor......... go see a DOCtor

the thing with the poison ivy oil is that it penetrates the outer skin
and then sits on top of you subcutaneous red layer of skin underneath
then (until) the BODY finds it ! and says "WE CAN"T have THIS crap here"
and it raises a blister to dispel (excrete) the poison IVY oil away.

with saltwater the residue of salt from seawater both drys the skin and flushes the oil off of you... but the best method is to sit on the beach get wet and
wait til dry and repeat over and over to FIGHT IT. still kinda cold for that.

Other than getting in the "PINK" using Calamine lotion which help's dry things up remarkably well ....... here's what i recommend

this is WHAT started me on my Health QUEST originally
learning "how to fight" F-ing poison IVY

ALCOHOL leaches your body of it's VITAMIN B especially BEER
doesn't matter the source really of alcohol

that leaves you WIDE open in your immune system response
of your SKIN when encountering the PI OIL even if just dealing with the plant's red roots "ONLY" I know that's what you were doing

the way to rid your YARD of poison IVY is with Black plastic
and smother it to death allowing it to have ZERO LIGHT!
spray it with Round up then cover it for a year.


to rid the body of it you have to blast yourself with all the B- vitamins to UPGRADE your skins recuperative powers 10-fold.
You do this with NUTRITIONAl Brewer's yeast left over from the beer making process then dried into either powder or flakes
this you stir into milk (well stirred) and down the hatch
(sometimes it can bloat you when your first using it so get your body accustomed to it. first teaspoons then later you can boldly use tablespoons) or simply take gas X or beano simultaneously) ok?

ALSO eat banana's and drink no alcohol for a long time until your winning the battle!!! (to retain your vitamin B )

ALSO-2 i would wear LONG Sleeve lightweight shirt's to bed
and pajama's because you have to prevent yourself from scratching it directly IN YOUR SLEEP

i also use technu (highly recommend) SO anytime i think "ive been exposed"
that's when i'll scrub my arms/ hands/legs with the technu
as a precaution

some of you may LAUGH

But when i go out to declare WAR on Poison IVY
with my weed whacker no less

First i go to HOME DEPOT and buy a cheap disposable $15 bucks
BLUE Painters pant suit that poison IVY oil cannot penetrate

i wear that with gloves and a grinders full shield face mask
my version of a HAZMAT SUIT

so when i am chopping (brush cutter blade) cutting down newly emerging
RED
poison ivy leaves in SPRING none of the OIL can get to my skin
for that hour or two of bush whackin

then, i go with covering the stubble with either black plastic sheeting
anchored with SOD chunks ,bricks ect, OR i use heavy gauge 4-6 mil trash bags full of debris whatever to
cover/smother that spot until it die's
