Poison Oak Rash

This photograph depicts an individual’s arm with a blistering poison oak rash. Note the linear pattern to the lesions. The Rhus genus of plants include poison ivy, poison oak and poison sumac. When the oil from such plants gets on the skin, it begins to penetrate in minutes. A blistering reaction appears, usually within 12 - 48 hours.
