How Do You Treat Poison Oak

 

Poison Oak Treatment

If you are suffering from a poison oak rash, then you know how torturing it is.  Seriously, I think this is a plant that came straight from Hell to bring terror to this land of humans!  A couple of months ago I suffered from a poison oak rash and the rash lasted for about two weeks! That was a lot of time if you have the rash because the itching WON’T go away.  Well… unless you take care of it through proper advice.

Now, the Internet is full of bogus advice from many sources.  Just go to a forum and ask for poison oak rash cures and you’ll get all sorts of opinion, most of the time conflicting ones.  So the best thing you can do, is start your search by taking a look at what trusted medical sites have tos ay about the topic.  I remember once I read on a forum that using hot water was great for treating poison oak, but then I found out that high temperatures can indeed cause more skin inflammation, making you endure that on top of the poison oak rash.


Anyway, the goal of this site is helping you find an answer to the question “How Do You Treat Poison Oak?”.  Most of this advice will come from my experience, and I will put links to different trusted sites on the Web where you will be able to expand your knowledge in the wide array of treatment options out there.  Well, not wide array really, but good working options.


There are people who are immune to the effects of this toxin, but in every case, over time the immunity will wear down, making these people more and more prone to develop a poison oak skin rash. 


If you come in contact with poison oak, you should prepare for some of the worst of weeks of your life.  And there is no poison oak cure that will totally get rid of the problem.  Medicine has yet to find a way, and all treatments are aimed at relieving the symptoms, mainly the itching and the formation of blisters.
