i know im not gonna die because of a splinter, but i kinda got one lodged inside my finger deep and i cant pull it out, so is my body gonna push it out by itself or melt the teeny piece of wood , or is it gonna stay in there forever?

[pepprmint]

depends on how deep it is
if theres even a tiny piece exposed to the surface, itll probably get pushed out
but if its fully completely in
then your skin will just heal itself over it, which ISNT good (risk of infection, germs, etc)
i have a bit of pencil lead in my palm thats been stuck there for yrs...
i cant feel it and its really tiny, but i can still see it....

[joechoe]

just man up and take it out lol.

use a needle to try and loosen up the skin and possibly expose the splinter...and then use nice tweezers to pull it out!

[LunaDiviner]

^ Yeah, just get a needle and slowly scrape the skin on top of it until you get to the splinter. It should be virtually painless. Make sure you clean the cut out too.

I hate splinters.

Wait a couple of days and see if it'll naturally come out, if not, then just go through the necessary steps to take it out. It'll be worth it!

[stoner beans]

yea i hate splinters as well.

did you try using a tweezer and pulling it out?

It will not dissolve. Your cells will just heal around it. I would recommend taking it out and if you can't do it, then go to your personal doctor for his assistance . I remember leaving a splinter in my finger, and when I went to pick stuff up, I could feel a tiny piercing. It didn't hurt, but it was annoying. I got fed up, and I got the piece of skin, and just squeezed the little bugger out

Blackhead is nearly a type of acne ,you can remove through the acne
treatment site .there are a number of site on the internet .

[forgottenmemories]

^WHAT??? What does this have to do with black heads? *confused* Lol.


But like everyone said, just try and take it out. If you leave it in your skin, it'll annoy you to death.

Best method to get the splinter out -------> Bananas. Trust me, it works and its painless.

Enzymes in banana peels produce a drawing action that pulls splinters out of your skin. Get some tape, attach a piece of fresh, ripe banana peel-skin-side up, pulp-side down--over the splinter before you go to bed, and leave it on overnight. In the morning, the splinter should be sitting on the surface of your skin so you can pull it out.

Note: If its really deep then you might have to apply another night.

Your body will get rid of it on its own... unless its like a really huge splinter, it might take a while or you might need to go see someone to get something done about it. Don't worry about it too much. It would be really annoying to have to wait for it to go away but yeah.....

Splinters can infect your body aka HARMFULNESS! You should really take it out for your own safety. My dad used to get a toe nail clipper and cut some of my skin to get out splinters x-x.
