If you have swollen hands from poison oak exposure, first wash the affected area with soap and water to remove any oils. Applying a cold compress can help reduce swelling and soothe discomfort. Over-the-counter antihistamines or corticosteroid creams may alleviate itching and inflammation. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
