A wooden piece went inside the skin.
Hi, about three to four days ago, a tiny wooden piece got inside the skin of my leg. I ignored it because it was extremely painful to touch, so I couldn't even think about removing it. But now when I tried to see it, it is not visible, I can't see the black mark on my leg. It is not painful too. Will the wood piece cause any harm to the leg? And how to remove it now?
