Guest guest Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Yvonne.. I have found jewelweed the best remedy for poison ivy. I buy it in spray, soap and salve. It works the best I have seen in any kind of skin rash. DM I have two requests. Does anyone know of relief for nerve damage from shingles? My friend has pain like sciatica. Accupunture works only if the needles are in. Once they are remove, it is back. She is on a lot of painkillers but she doesn't like them. My nephew also has a pretty bad poison ivy outbreak. Does anyone know of a good remedy for it? Thanks, Yvonne **************Wondering what's for Dinner Tonight? Get new twists on family favorites at AOL Food.

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 On those rare occasions I get a little poison ivy rash, I dampen it with water, sprinkle on salt, and scrub away with my hands. It satisfies that itch! I keep scrubbing until it starts to slightly burn, then leave plenty of salt on it (maybe add some more), let it dry. That has always dried the rash right up, and takes care of the itch, too. Joy , Teddyberen wrote: > > Yvonne.. > I have found jewelweed the best remedy for poison ivy.
