  1. *** I am not seeking medical advice *** A recent poison ivy rash made me curious as to what exactly is happening when a rash "weeps". So far I've discovered that urushiol changes proteins in your skin prompting T Cells to call their brothers the macrophages and others to destroy your otherwise healthy skin. During the immune response, the rash "weeps". My question is, is the weeping a result of the cell lysis? Without putting the contents of whatever is coming out of the rash under a microscope, would I be far off in assuming that the fluid coming out of the rash is lysate or cytoplasm and cellular material? Just curious. Thanks in advance :)
