I was really disappointed with humans when I visited Herculaneum - there was graffiti in the way of spray paint on the ancient sea wall and scratched names and such in the plaster on the walls of the interior of the homes and shops.The modern day fools akin to 19th and 20th century tourists carving their names on ancient monuments all for a fleeting bit of fun.
Hope that you are seeking medical attention. As a kid I got Poison Oak dust in my eyes and they were swollen shut for days. I used to get "Oaked" when I panned for gold in the 70s and finally quit gold panning after the 4th time of getting shots and itching.I somehow managed to get Poison Oak in my eye...
Beleive it or not, I can literally roll in the stuff and it has almost no effect on me.Hope that you are seeking medical attention.

When I was in Scouts, they made me trailblazer once.When I was in Boy Scouts someone lined the latrine with poison oak!!!
That was totally wrong, if intentional!When I was in boy scouts some idiot threw it into the campfire and half the troop ended up in the hospital.
Good times.Not intentional. Just dumb kids throwing crap into the fire.
Useful to archaeologists, they thrive in places like old cess pits and dumping grounds where artefacts can be found.Another plant to avoid which grows around California water ways is Stinging Nettle. Some times it's even encountered along irrigation canals here in the valley.
One weekend on motorcycle racing we did a sponsored ride around the circuit to raise money for the St John Ambulance who worked at the meetings. Three riders were taken to hospital, two with gravel rash and one who overshot a corner (bicycles dont have the brakes or grip of motorcycles) went over the tyres and Armco barrier into a pile of nettles wearing just shorts, he had so many stings he went into shock.As a kid back in the good old days when we used to get good summers in the UK, I was in my bathers and fell into a patch of Stinging Nettles...........................................need I say more!
