Plant Thorn Synovitis
A type of joint inflammation that results from plantmatter within the joint from a thorn puncture.
SYMPTOMS
Plant thorn arthritis causes the involved joint to be swollen, slightly reddish, stiff, and painful. The joint loses its full range of motion and is often tender. The symptoms of plant thorn arthritis may occur long after the thorn is removed from the affected joint.
CAUSES
The plant thorn fragments cause a localized inflammation reaction in the joint lining tissue that leads to swelling, stiffness, loss of range of motion, and pain. The joint lining tissue is called the synovium.
