What to do in order to keep from spreading poison ivy rash?

Asked by JessicaRTBH (1821) September 2nd, 2011 from iPhone

This has been one heck of a summer for me and skin issues I’ll tell ya (like one of those annoying people) but seriously, I just got the skin back on my face after a bad sunburn (caused by antibiotics from a recluse bite) so now at this same jobsite I’ve been working at I’ve managed to get poison ivy big time (dr did confirm) I was just wondering if there were any secret tips and or things to know in order to keep it from spreading and to make it go away quickly. My dr.‘s tips are nice but I have a feeling there is another solution. Thanks in advance guys.
