A member asked:
There is pain swelling from a rose bush thorn prick, what can i do to relieve it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This could be: Sporotrichosis, a fungal infection of skin. If it persists, see a doctor for treatment, otherwise the infection may persist for a while. It could also be bacterial and should respond to topical neosporin.
