Last fall a little friend of ours had a run in with a nettle patch; we found the jewelweed right next to it, split open the stem, took the pain away almost instantly.<br /><br />You can use this with any plant related rash. Jewelweed is great for the skin.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06794766230330012537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968242630894103409.post-61363553143594040642009-07-31T15:34:38.957-04:002009-07-31T15:34:38.957-04:00Gosh, well I never knew how to make that before!

It completely healed the rash in a matter of a day or so.
