This is often the result of wearing gloves while gardening or working in the yard or from contact with rough surfaces such as concrete sidewalks or wood floors. These small but irritating pieces of plant material can get caught under nails and cause pain, infection, and permanent damage to nail beds if not removed quickly.<\/p>\n<p>After a day of gardening, it&#8217;s not uncommon to find burrs clinging to fingers and clothes. These prickly little pests can be difficult to remove from clothing because they get caught in the fabric fibers. One way to remove them is by using a lint roller or sticky tape. You can also use rubbing alcohol on your hands and then wash your hands with soap and water for extra protection against any lingering allergens that might have been left behind after removing the burrs.<\/p>\n<p>Some people recommend soaking the affected area in warm water instead of washing it off with harsh chemicals like rubbing alcohol or soap, but this method may not always work as well as other methods because some types of burr are waterproof.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Finger burrs can be a real pain when you&#8217;re out in the field.
