How do you get sliver out of your hand for someone with low pain tolerance?!


Question: How do you get sliver out of your hand for someone with low pain tolerance!?
I went corn picking today and got one on the crease between my index and third fingers!. Not between them, thankfully, but on the palm side near that!. My pain tolerance it pretty low and the sliver is pretty small!.
(yes you could lecture me about how useful gloves are but please don't!. I have a story!.)Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I'd suggest soaking your hand in lukewarm water first, and then take some tweezers and gently coax it out!. I can't tell you it won't hurt, but it'll feel a lot better after you do!. And then you can go bowling! But a baindaid over it if it still hurts after you pull the sliver out!. I don't know why, but I always feel better if I have a bandaid on my cuts, even if they don't need it, lol!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

wow I totally read that question wrong I thought it said how do you get silver out your hair with low pain tolerance!.!.!.!.I was thinking how coloring your hair hurt really bad lol ha ha blonde moment and probably the fact I didn't grow up around corn and didn't know what a silver was (florida born and raised)but I was say a pair of tweezers is about the only way put ice over the area to numb it a bit before you start to use the tweezers and it should work good luck Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ice your hand until you can't feel anything and then use a pair of tweezers!. Personally, for me tweezers take too long, so I usually hack it out with an exacto knife that I heated up with a lighter!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I wouldn't Ice it I would soak it in warm water so it relaxes the skin then you can use the tweezers and a needle to get it out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

have someone do it for you using tweezers, don't look at it while they take it out and squeeze that person's hand, or something to distract youWww@Answer-Health@Com

Okay; get some duct or Gorilla tape!. Put it over the area with the splinter!. leave it sit for a few them pull it so it pulls the splinter out in the direction it went in!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

use a needle and tweezers!. honestly, it doens't hurt- you're only picking at the top layer of skin, and it's dead!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Grab tweezers, sanitize them, and have someone pull it out!. Or go to the doctor's office on Monday!.!. but you probably can't wait that long!Www@Answer-Health@Com

ice to numb it !?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
