Penicillin is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections. It is not appropriate for *all* infections, as different bacteria are specific to the various infections and each one needs to be treated for that particular bacteria. Infections can range from wounds to sickness, and they start when bacteria is allowed to break through the body's protective barriers and mechanisms, either through breathing, ingesting or a break in the skin/tissue, and colonize within the body. Infections typically involve heat, swelling, pus and resistance to other remedies.
A microorganism that can cause fungal infections can enter the body through means such as inhalation and broken skin.
Poison ivy does not cause any particular infections. It does however tend to cause significant allergic reactions in most people including rashes and blisters. The rashes and blisters can provide opportunities for infections if the rash is scratched enough to break the skin or if the blisters pop - again providing a break in the skin. Most bacterial infections of the skin are caused by two bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus and a form of Streptococcus but any time the skin is broken, it provides a greater opportunity for any type of organism or fungus to infect the skin.
