Can Poison Oak Rashes On Palms Cause Nerve Damage?
I recently had poison oak in a few spots on my right arm. Big blisters on my fingers and even on my palms under the thickest skin on my palms. And now it s healing up but I m having nerve pain in the areas on my arm and my fingers where the rash was. Is this a temporary feeling or what? Can poison oak cause nerve damage?

Hello,
Poison oak causes allergic reaction or dermatitis.
If there are signs of nerve injury better to seek help from a neurologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
