Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
It felt like I had a splinter in my toe. I checked and there appears to be a hair growing there. When I looked online, apparently people have had a stray animal or human hair splinter into their feet. All of these were posts that didn t seem to get any answers from a doctor. it was just people who had the experience. They all said it was extremely painful to pull the hair out. It has me worried about fetching the tweezers. Is it safe to pull it myself or should I see a physician?
spinster are metallic body from blast. other things you are mentioning are foreign body. in both cases they are to be surgically removed. do not try to pull out by tweezer. it may be broken or may induct infection. leave it to doctor to do the need ful.
