Are rose thorns poisonous? What should you do if you are pricked?

1. Is it poisonous?

Rose thorns are not poisonous. Because it is a non-toxic flower and does not secrete toxic substances, its thorns are also non-toxic. Even if you are pricked by it, it will not cause poisoning. However, there may be pesticide residues on it. If they enter the body through the wound, they may also cause symptoms such as inflammation.

2. What to do after being stabbed

1. Remove the thorns: After being pricked by it, immediately use a fine needle to pick out the thorns remaining in the flesh. Note that the needle must be roasted with fire in advance and then used only after it has cooled down. This can prevent the germs originally on the needle from entering the body through the wound.

2. Disinfection: After removing the thorn, you can prepare some iodine, dilute it slightly with water, dip a cotton swab in it, and apply it to the outside of the wound. This can prevent bacteria in the air from invading the body through the wound. Usually, the condition will improve within a week after the injection.
