Extract wood splinter

how to take out a stubborn wood splinter from the heel?
( 7 May 2007)

It is important to remove the wood splinter completely to avoid any kind of infection.
- Clean your hands and the knee area, slowly pinch the knee area, this will cause the wood splinter to pop up. Use a sterilized tweaser and pull it out carefully without leaving any part of it in the skin.



- You can also use a duct tape. Clean the area and apply duct tape over it. Rip it off carefully.
