Poison ivy/oak, Old timers treatment WORKS Options

[poprivit2]

This I think will help a lot of the poison ivy/oak sufferes..
When I was a kid I would get into poison ivy all summer...finally got smart.. well almost smart..must of lost it over the years.. But wait heres the "rub".. if you get a rash there is an old time remendy that worked for me.. this fellow about 80 was working on my dads place and saw that I was rashed on my arm. told me to get some Rubarb and cut the stem down by the Green end into a 4" chunk, then mash that end on the sink to make it soft and let the juice out,,then select a finger to do the itching,, rub that finger nail in the juice an go ahead and itch even scratch to my hearts content, BOY did that sting.. then rub the area with the rubarb stick in the broken skin and let it dry..more stinging.
next morning all dryed up kind of scabby, no spreading 2 days later gone entirely.. always works.. rubarb is hard to find in the south but should be available most other places..Oh yea..after the treatment it also DOSEN'T itch any more either!!
