Spanish term

punta desflorecida

Spanish to English Medical Medical: Instruments Agujas Hipodérmincas
Agradecería mucho me explicaran cómo se puede decir en inglés cuando la punta de una aguja hipodérmica está "desflorecida" o sea que tiene restos de diminutas partes en su borde que no la hacen completamente afilada. El término "desflorecer" lo utilizan para demostrar bien este problema.
Proposed translations (English)
1 dull point
