Anyone ever have experience with this plants famous oil urushiol. 15% of people are unaffected by it, some barely notice it.... Others well its hell for them.
In canada i know its eastward starting from Ontario all the way to Nova scotia i believe. Im sure the US is similar, this plants has so many variations of it that most people can not identify it. Well it has 3 leafs is all everyone seems to know.
I was speaking with a traveler here about it (from germany) and he kinda chuckled. Thought i was kidding till i showed him the effects of it, Which i happen to be experiencing right now. After a few beers u start gathering firewood and just forget its there. Lol Its itches, burns, causes major discomfort. Im just glad it didnt reach my gential area!!
I HIGHLY recommend getting the 1% hydrocortisone cream its available over counter here in Canada. Instead of it itching to the point where u break skin and get a staph infection it burns for about 10 mins then u forget all about it.
