I think I've got plant thorn synovitis from a citrus tree thorn jab. Any recommendations for doctor / hand orthopedic surgeon? Has anyone else experienced this before? Thanks in advance.

you might need an infectious disease specialist, depending on any infection you currently have and symptoms. I saw Dr John Fackler, an orthopedic surgeon, in the Woodlands for a knee/tendon issue, and he, and staff were great.

Yikes! That sounds painful. I always seems to get stuck by varieties of cactus plants in a client's yard.

Oh my gosh! I've never heard of such a thing! Do you think you need to see a dermatologist first?

please do! hoping the area is feeling better today. sometimes soaking the area in hot water (as warm as you can stand) for 15 minutes, helps. Simple, but has worked for me.
