The easiest way to reproduce this issue is to install clojure-ts-mode 
from NonGNU ELPA. inline-markdown is used to highlight Markdown syntax 
in docstrings, and it functions correctly when the Markdown is 
valid. However, if the Markdown syntax within a docstring is incorrect 
(for example, unbalanced backticks), the syntax highlighting breaks 
even beyond the docstring.

We use the following range setting for inline markdown:

(treesit-range-rules
 :embed 'markdown-inline
 :host 'clojure
 (clojure-ts--docstring-query '@capture))

The query captures docstrings correctly.

Steps to reproduce starting from 'emacs -Q':

1. Evaluate in the *scratch* buffer:

(package-initialize)
(package-install 'clojure-ts-mode)
(require 'clojure-ts-mode)

2. Open attached file bug.clj

3. Remove one of backticks from the first docstring.

Expected result: syntax highlighting of the Clojure code is not 
affected.

Actual result: part of the Clojure code is highlighted with the face 
defined for markdown code_span query. Image attached.

P.S. There is a possibility that an issue within clojure-ts-mode is 
the cause. Any advice on how to resolve this would be 
appreciated. Thank you in advance.
