I pruned my mom's azaleas and moved some of them last week, and I have been tortured by an itchy, blistering rash ever since. I thought it was poison ivy at first too, but this is much worse than any poison ivy I've ever had, and I know there was no poison ivy out there. I have been treating it as you would poison ivy because I can't find any other remedies out there, but they aren't helping. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. I was worried the azaleas wouldn't survive being moved at this time of year, but now I don't care ! Oh my goodness !

So I also remembered that I had been pruning azaleas the day before, and i was actually relieved that i might have the same reaction as you. Red, bumpy, blotchy, itchy hands and forearms. What do you suggest to get rid, antihystemines ? Thanks Hi

I thought it was poison ivy. I googled allergic to azaleas and came across your blog. Unbelievable. I just discovered that I’m allergic to azaleas, too. I thought it was poison ivy.
