Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was stuck by a thorn from a coral cactus on the back of my hand (Sat) , just above my wrist , but below my thumb. A few hours later the pain was excruciating, like a bad sprain, but with minimal redness and slight swelling.Can't use that hand without extreme pain (range of motion thumb) Without aspirin taking the edge off I wouldn't be able to stand the pain.. It is now Mon. and I am heading to an emergency clinic for a Tetnus booster. What else should I expect for treatment?
