Toothpaste

The only thing that will help my DH is a product called DomeBoro it can be bought at most pharmacies. Its a little packet of powder that you mix with water and then use the paste that it makes on the affected areas.

It really helps him as he is HIGHLY allergic to poison ivy/oak and it will even get in his blood stream resulting in him needing shots and then steroids. Good luck!

It's on her feet not in her mouth. Soak them in water with baking soda. Lots of it. Not hot. For a long time. Take an antihistimine. Benadril something like that. And for pete's sake put some shoes on.

You kids are gonna give me a heart attack. Sorry that's just my dad voice.

It works!! I used it on my arms. It helps the itching stop and starts drying it up..
Not a huge glob of toothpaste.. Just a nice thin layer

Works on zits too!

I am VERY allergic to it, and have it bad right now. I have always used calamine lotion to reduce the itching. It helps quite a bit. So does a hot shower. Unfortunately, I get it systemically. Right now, my lips are so swollen my own family wouldn't recognize me.
