I hate PI. Like many others I get it bad. Had the eyes swollen shut and looked like a leper one time, never thought it would heal. My groin area was also infected, there are no words to describe what that looked looked liked. Got the steroids but it irritated the skin so much it was a long process. I took oatmeal baths and that felt better but didn't make it go away.I was leaking sap like a Maple tree.
I avoid it now and is one reason I like boating over camping.
Best of luck with it and hope you feel better.
Don't scratch......
(PS don't burn it! I know a guy who got it IN his lungs from burning it, a nasty plant!)
