How do I know if I have poison ivy or just a rash?

I went for a hike 2 days ago and went off the main trail, when I got home my legs were very itchy, and are extremely itchy today. My legs have little bumps all over them and I was thinking it was poison ivy, but not sure.

Answer #1

Is it intensly itchy? Are the bumps in a line/streak pattern? And is it kind of bulding up into watery blisters? - those are your symptoms! Have you shown your parents? What do they think it is? If it’s bugging you badly, go see your doctor asap, for it is contagious!!
