Gotta be careful with those 'home remedies'.ygmir wrote:... dang, I woke up with what seems poison oak. ...

A friend and two of his friends, that I happen to know, went camping and no one thought to take TP.
One idiot wiped with poison ivy!!!
But being the smart idiot he is, he remembered one 'scientific fact': poison ivy breaks down with UV light. Also being a knowledgeable smart idiot, he remembered that the sun produces UV light. And the reports are, and from himself not just the unfortunate witnesses, that he quickly combined the two and decided to lay on his back like a turtle, holding his knees to his chest, and pointing the affected area at the sun.
No feedback on if the UV worked on the poison ivy, but the reports are it did thoroughly sunburn the affected parts.
