The best way to treat a poison ivy rash is to treat it with natural remedies. These remedies are often time less expensive then buying over the counter lotions and creams.
Take Vitamin C with bioflavonoid to help prevent the spread of infection. It will also help to reduce the swelling.
Take calcium and beta carotene to help boost the response from your immune system and to speed the healing process.
Taking zinc will help to repair the skin tissue that the poison ivy plant has damaged.
Calamine lotion is a great way to increase the healing process.
Combine 1 tsp of water, 3 tsp of baking soda, oatmeal, cornstarch, or Epson salt. Create a paste and apply it to the infected skin.
Apply aloe vera juice, tofu, or watermelon rind to help soothe the itching and to dry out the skin.
