Not a great day to resume work on the 11th January 2021, (primary workplace – Methodist City Action).
Life moved a mystery way when anyone does the gardening, driving to work or to a friend’s pace even to a cafe and have a yard of chatty.
Enjoying the summer day’s chilly morning to do the cleaning up the garden and pruning the roses. Of course, must wear gloves to protect our precious skins of the hands. Approaching on to the sizeable lovely rose shrub in front of the bedroom windows, the roses’ pleasant smell floated through the window. A time prune back this rose shrub and went on to pruning and pruning until a stab into the gloves. Peeled back the glove of the left hand for inspecting a horrible stab thorn for the worst moment. The glove I wore had peeled the top thorn bit, but the bottom bit stabs into the knuckle for the worst moment. That day was on a Sunday 10th of January.
I never had been troubling of having broken thorns or thorns stabbed into my body part except my partner loathe roses around the gardens. He wishes roses should be chopping down. Why? Well, he has been riding on the ‘ride on mower’ when doing the fields needs mowing down, and he gets a few roses prickled into his body.
The hiccup of pricked broken thorn caused by the planting of broken thorn arthritis is a noninfectious inflammation of a joint due to a thorn puncturing the reciprocal and leaving residual plant matter lodged within the joint. Plant thorn arthritis typically affects only a single joint — the joint that the plant thorn pierced.
A simple treatment was taken placed in the bathroom for I do have mild asthma and allergy.
To take care of a puncture wound:
- Wash your hands. This helps prevent infection.
- Stop the bleeding. Apply gentle pressure with a clean bandage or cloth.
- Clean the wound. Rinse the wound with clear water for five to 10 minutes. …
- Apply an antibiotic. …
- Cover the wound. …
- Change the dressing. …
- Watch for signs of infection.
This detail of the treatment can be found in Mayo Clinic website if you wish to learn how to do the future treatment. I have learnt this treatment over many years.
The next day we went on a trip to my GP as it was my GP’s appointment for I made the appointment in the previous week ago. I was given another tetanus and two other vaccinations for safety risk, just under eight years away from sixty-five years old. Of course, my GP provided a lovely antibiotic which is more powerful and ancient fashion prescription – Amoxicillin clavulanic acid (Penicillin antibiotic).
Ouch, swearing most of the times in the day yesterday and this morning. The joint knuckles are very painful when I move my third finger. Overnight, I was sleeping okay but struggling for our two dogs loves to sleep on the bed and take up space. Currently the garden jobs are on hold for the moment of the week.
