Hi Chris,

The rash is quite variable. The normal run for itchy / swollen is about 4 to 7 days I believe though there are factors which can mean a longer duration. Those factors can include your actual sensitivity, the amount of urushiol oil you came in contact with, and the care of the rash itself. On average, an outbreak will last about 10 to 14 days but not all of that is "itchy" time.
