Best Answer

I will suggest you talk with your physician about this. Most commercial poison ivy medications are not intended for use on the mucus membranes (which the genitalia are), so you may need a prescription medication for the itch/rash.

Can you use silver sulfadiazine cream on poison ivy?

No, you should not use silver sulfadiazine cream on poison ivy. Silver sulfadiazine is an antibiotic cream that is used to treat wounds and burns. It works by killing bacteria that can cause infection. However, poison ivy is not caused by bacteria, but by an oil called urushiol. Urushiol is a very potent allergen that can cause a rash, blisters, and itching. Silver sulfadiazine will not help to treat the rash caused by poison ivy, and it may actually make it worse. If you have come into contact with poison ivy, the best thing to do is to wash the affected area with soap and water as soon as possible. You can also apply a cool compress to the area to help relieve the itching. If the rash is severe, you may need to see a doctor for treatment. Here are some home remedies that can help to relieve the symptoms of poison ivy: Calamine lotion Oatmeal bath Baking soda paste Witch hazel Tea tree oil If you are allergic to poison ivy, you may also want to take an over-the-counter antihistamine, such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl). It is important to note that poison ivy can be very contagious. If you have come into contact with it, it is important to wash your clothes and any other items that may have come into contact with the oil. You should also avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth after handling poison ivy.
