Poison ivy does not cause any particular infections. It does however tend to cause significant allergic reactions in most people including rashes and blisters. The rashes and blisters can provide opportunities for infections if the rash is scratched enough to break the skin or if the blisters pop - again providing a break in the skin. Most bacterial infections of the skin are caused by two bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus and a form of Streptococcus but any time the skin is broken, it provides a greater opportunity for any type of organism or fungus to infect the skin.
