    A friend’s brother pricked his finger with a needle threading popcorn onto a string and got a very alarming infection that made his thumb swell up alarmingly. I also know someone else who got a splinter or something near a finger joint and was surprised to have it surgically treated as a full emergency. It’s definitely not something to take lightly.
