Wood splinter
Hello actually last night i got pinched with a wood splinter and went to a nursing home where technical staff removed it from my foot finger before it was paining a lot but after removing it the pain subsided.today morning i checked the finger and felt it's still visible there but upon pressing I didn't had any pain. For my confirmation I went to a surgeon he said he can't see anything and what I am talking about is just a cut. Then again I squeezed the finger and blood and some white discharge came out i went to another Suergon he scraped the skin and said there is nothing but just gave me antibiotics. So my question is if it's not paining does it mean the thing has been removed??? If it would have been there it could have caused swelling and lot of pain right? It's already 24 hours and I can't feel pain but I just feel what if it could be there.
