Sporotrichosis: Also referred to as "rose gardener's disease" is a fungal infection which may be caused by a thorn prick. Aside from a rose thorn prick, other forms of exposures may lead to this condition as well. If left untreated an ulceration at the site of the infection may take place. Potassium iodine saturation may cure the problem but a tedious task. Itraconazole and Fluconazole are effective.
