Risk Factors And Causes Of Plant Thorn Arthritis

Many of us think gardening is among the safest hobbies to do. We look at other hobbies like mountain climbing and tend to believe they are riskier than gardening. However, every activity comes with risks and benefits. Gardening, for instance, has the danger of contracting plant thorn arthritis, which is a non-infectious inflammation of the joint. The condition arises due to the plant thorns that may get stuck in joints of the body. A small injury such as a plant thorn piercing the skin can cause fatal consequences if not appropriately addressed. Most gardeners who get hurt by a plant thorn would most probably remove it and ignore.
