Splinter On Bottom of Foot??

[THoltz]

Hello everyone

this morning I woke up and realized I have a small splinter on the bottom of my foot. It looks like it is fairly embedded in there.

it hurts a little when I walk.
I tried removing it with some tweezers but I had no success.

I did get a Tetanus booster two years ago.


Should I wait for the splinter to drop out? I am concerned somewhat about it getting infected

So the splinter is still in the bottom of my foot. It does not hurt or anything but I am wondering if I should see someone about it or should I let it fall out?

I have attached a picture of it

Anyone? I’m thinking it is a splinter of some kind as it is tender to the touch. I don’t know what to do about it.

if you think it is a splinter then put a plaster on it to 'draw' it out
