Camphor is good for poison ivy. Vicks Vaporub can help.

I get it real bad, used to fish a reservoir that was covered in it. Never had an effect. But one day it got me. Walking oozing blister. Old dude said go home, get a clean white wash cloth and crank the cold water in the shower. Then scrub those blisters like you were sanding Cads bondo. Then pour peroxide on it. Probably not what the doctor would tell you to do but that’s how I handle it now. That work?? Old timers seem to know a thing or two [br In my opinion it works, lessons the misery of the itching and oozing. Some guys look for arrowheads and deer sheds in the woods, I’m looking for poison ivy and oak.

Camphor is good for poison ivy. Vicks Vaporub can help. Sure does. Get Vicks on your nuts and you'll forget all about your PI. I used to get PI a lot when we were living in Asheville. We had it all through our woods and on the mountain. I was on a first name basis with the local medical staff. Ticks? None, but when in PA I had more than my share though none caused any issues.

Vicks on your junk is probably bad
The worst thing I ever had happen was when I was done playing football once I was rubbing some Deep Heat on my shoulder while sitting in a hot bathtub.
Whoops. Oh my goodness. I thought I was going to die
