Answer 1

You are going to think I'm completely nuts, but white gasoline(like if you have lawnmower gas) dip a q-tip in it and dauber on the blisters. Good luck!!

Answer 2

Try not to scratch it...keep it dry if at all possible, and get some Aveeno cream to put on it. It is one of the few lotions designed to actually dry up poison ivy, oak, and sumac. Also you can try soaking your foot in hot (not scalding) water, then pour rubbing alcohol over the affected area. Hope this helps :D

Answer 3

Your foot shouldn't be painful with poison ivy, just itchy!!!!
Clean area real good.............while blisters are still wet. push finger nail into each one, (it will feel good because of the itching)
then put some regular sugar on each blister and let dry......This seems strange but it works...Don't know why....(Just don't eat your foot) It works for many people with itching.......(I also tried baking soda b/4 but sugar stops the itching better....And as strange as this sounds....my husband did the nail thing, and then put after shave on his poison ivy........It burned like heck but stopped the itching.....go figure (no we are not wierd) just try things other people tell us to try....

Answer 4

they make a clear gel not sure of the name but your local pharmacy should know, also you could take some benedryl at least 25-50 mgs for the itching should help but tends to make you sleepy, try and keep it clean, dry, and cool will help
