The rash, if not severe, clears up in about three weeks. Luckily, mango flesh has very low levels of Urushiol, so most sensitive people can eat the fruit... aloha-dermatology.com blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=875448 Wed, 16 May 2007 18:38:04 +0100 875448 http://aloha-dermatology.com/aloha-dermatology-blog/?p=11 and Chuck Edmonson bring you “Talking Stink.” Click Here to read Dr. Ly’s latest “Island Scene” contribution.
