What to do if you get stuck by a rose thorn

Getting stuck by a rose thorn can be targeted depending on how deeply the thorn is lodged. After being stabbed by a rose thorn, the first thing to observe is whether the thorn has remained in the soft tissue. First, the patient can press the location of the puncture, if there is no needle-like pain, only a slight dull pain, indicating that the thorns do not exist inside, you can use iodophor, hydrogen peroxide and other disinfectant drugs to disinfect the affected area repeatedly. If there is a tingling sensation when pressing the affected area, it means that the splinter still exists in the soft tissue, and the patient needs to consult a doctor for examination in time, and the doctor will take out the splinter. If the thorns are large and small, transparent adhesive can be applied to the injury, and then the transparent adhesive can be quickly removed along the longitudinal axis of the thorns, which can bring out most of the thorns. If the patient penetrated deeper, and the spines are attached to pollutants, the patient should take antibiotics, such as cefadroxil, amoxicillin, etc. after local disinfection to prevent infection, and if necessary, the patient can also seek medical attention to receive tetanus vaccination to prevent other infections.
