I will say one time about 10 years ago I literally shaved the top layer of skin off my arm with a knife because the poison ivy was driving me so insane. Just took the knife began cutting across my arm and all the little ooze bubbles popped and it was a ****ing disgusting mess. But after that it did go away pretty quickly surprisingly. Horrible memory, but I couldn't even feel the pain from cutting my skin at all. It was just relief.
I thought for sure I'd have scarring but I didn't. My arm healed and the knife never left a scar.
