How do you get a deep splinter out? I managed to get one right in the crease of my big toe - it went in and up so now it's on the pad of my toe. It *feels* like it hit the bone although I can see the dark outline of it just barely through the skin. I'm not going to try pushing it out - it's too deep, I don't want it to break, and the hole is too small for what I'm seeing. So how would you get it out?
I came across a Pin the other day that said if you mix up a solution of warm water and baking soda to form a paste, put it on the opening of the splinter wound, cover it with a bandage for a few hours and the splinter would come out. Another pin said 24 hours. I admit I tried this for a few hours. Then I tried the "soak your splinter injury in white vinegar for 30 minutes" routine with similarly no luck. It effing hurts
