Poison Ivy and Poison Oak

These three plants are responsible for more cases of dermatitis than any other substances. When contact is made with any part of the plant a rash develops on the skin, this rash is cause by a reaction to a chemical compound in the resin called urushiol (one of the most potent toxins on earth) found all over the plant, some cases have been reported from people that came in contact with pets that had been in the bushes. When the plant is burned, the smoke is also irritant and can cause a reaction in the respiratory tract.

The symptoms are red pimples extremely itchy, swelling, blisters, burning, inflammation, fever and/or inflamation in the face or genitals area. The appearance of the symptoms can be between anywhere from a few hours to seven or ten days after contact with the plant. It can then spread rapidly during the next three days, especially with scratching.

The areas most likely to be affected by poison ivy are the hands, arms, face or legs. Scratching the rash can spread the inflammation to other parts of the body. Redness, swelling and itching usually begin to heal after the second day that the rash appears.
