Default Thorn Attack

My wife is usually the one who does the gardening, but today I decided
I would
Clear a way to get through a path to our garage.
I got to work on cutting away at a quince bush (or whatever it's
called)
I now have a sore finger after a thorn attack
Any ideas how to remove this?
The last time this sort of thing happened I ended up with a septic
infection
And I don't want that again thank you


Oh dear, I do hope there are no Rats around your garden with you suggesting
it being overgrown etc as they carry Weil's Disease in their urine and even
the slightest hint in a cut will allow you to catch it. It's a lethal
disease if not caught early.
I trust your Tetanus inoculations are up to date too you wouldn't want that
either or, indeed, gangrene which is not pleasant. (speaking from
experience!)
Was it a dirty thorn?
