When a cactus "stings" you, it releases tiny hair-like spines called glochids that can embed into your skin, causing irritation and pain. These spines can be difficult to remove and may lead to swelling, redness, and itching at the site of contact. It is important to carefully remove the spines to prevent further irritation or infection.
