In case you get one the next time you are around an aggressive piece of wood, here's how to safely remove it. Published on 4/12/2000http://www.ehow.com/tips_2050.htmlYou can get splinter out with baking soda! try this:<br/><br/>/www.life123.com/health/first-aid/wounds/how-to-remove-splinters-using-baking-soda.shtmlhttp://www.ehow.com/tips_2050.htmlThis sounds really odd, but I learned from my grandfather to tape a piece of bacon (the fatter, the better) over a splinter, and it would be out by the next morning. This not only works on wood splinters, but metal and glass, even a piece of glass that had been in my finger for months! I could never find the glass, but it would occasionally hurt considerably. I tried the bacon months later (possibly over a year) and the glass was on the bacon the following morning. Strangely, there was no hole or wound where the glass came out of my finger.http://www.ehow.com/tips_2050.htmlIf you aren't sure you have a splinter in your finger close and press your fingers together(no cracks) and shine a flashlight on the botton and if there is a splinter you will easily see it! http://www.ehow.com/tips_2050.htmlI had a wood splinter in my thumb and i got a piece out then it took me a day to fish a another piece of wood deeper.

He won't let you go near him with tweezers or a needle. I decided to use honey hair removal wax. Soak the area in warm water or under the faucet for several minutes. Then apply the wax the splinter and wait a few seconds and pull it off. It takes a few tries for splinters that are small but it will work!http://www.ehow.com/tips_2050.htmljo: There is a very very fine and small object stuck deep down into the left side of my left foot breast, which in i am not able to remove despite all the probing, the use of needle, immersing my leg into water, squeezing, peeling of surrounding skin etc... i find it hard to walk properly as there seems to be a little infeection, morever it hurts to do anything of the above. The fine "thing" has been stuck inside mmy leg for 5 days... and i have absolutely no idea how to relieve both the pain and the "thing". Am thinking of using wood glue on the area, in hope that it will come off upon peeling the glue... But i'm also afraid of the possibility of infection... Can someone experience out there help me??
