I had the misfortune to have the back of my hand sliced open by a Locust tree thorn while cutting the grass underneath it. Although it was immediately disturbing to look at my bleeding hand, I simply treated it as any cut that does not seem to require professional medical attention. I cleaned and bandaged the wound. It healed normally with no other effect.

is it dangerous - just stood on a thorn it was black and about 3 inches long it went in about two cm into your foot could it be poisonous?

In most situations thorns don't contain poisons themselves, but that is not always true. If your foot was pierced by a thorn it is possible to get an infection from the thorn piercing deeply into your foot. Make sure to wash the foot thoroughly, and if any pain or swelling arises - seek immediate medical attention.

I have stepped on a honey locust thorn and can't tell if I got it all out it is painful and I can not put any pressure on it is it just swollen or is something probably in their?

I don't know when you posted this but I did the same thing a year ago and it took quite a while for the pain to go away. My guess is that there is something in the honey locust needle that is an irritant. I also thought there was something still in my foot, that's how bad it hurt. What really helped while my foot was getting better was to wear shoes that had a thick rubber sole. I have a pair of Land's End clogs with the canvas upper and a super thick rubber sole, they were the only shoes I was comfortable in. I still wear them to this day when I go out in my pasture (which is where I got the injury) just in case, the needles don't go through it sole. Hope this helps, good luck.
