I think I may have poison ivy. Does anyone have any suggestions on how best to stop it from spreading or get it to go away faster?

You want to dry it out. Also Calamine lotion is good to help with the itching, even though you will be pink.

If you rub Vitamin E or Aloe on the infected areas it will help with healing. The Aloe also helps with the itching. Over the counter calamine is suppose to be best for the itching. This site has more than a dozon remedies that are all suppose to work: http://www.health911.com/remedies/rem_pois.htm
