Poison ivy contains an oil called urushiol, which can cause an allergic skin reaction in many people upon contact. Symptoms typically include red, itchy rashes, swelling, and blisters, which can be uncomfortable and may take weeks to heal. In some cases, severe reactions can lead to complications such as difficulty breathing if the oil is inhaled or if the rash becomes infected. It's important to wash the affected area and seek medical attention if symptoms are severe.
