Hello,
From the symptoms,it does not sound like poison ivy rash. Symptoms of poison ivy include redness and itching of the skin, development of rash and sometimes development of blisters from rash.
These bumps can be due to scabies or dyshidrotic eczema. Rash in scabies is usually found in the folds of skin and they are red blister like rashes.Yet they are very itchy and can disrupt life. Diagnosis of scabies is made by scraping the skin and viewing the material under a microscope to see the characteristic mite or eggs.
Diagnosis can be confirmed only after clinical examination.I feel that a dermatologist would be the best person to evaluate that.
Hope it helps. Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.Kind regards.
