Hi Anon,

Welcome to EmpowHER. Have you tried looking to see if there's anything inside.  You might want to try and pull it out, carefully. If not, you might have to see your doctor. 

Here are some of the causes for a sliver

  • Wood-organic FBs: splinters, cactus spines, thorns, toothpicks
  • Metallic FBs: bullets, BBs, nails, sewing needles, pins, tacks
  • Fiberglass spicules
  • Fishhooks: May have a barbed point that makes removal difficult
  • Glass
  • Pencil lead-graphite
  • Plastic FBs

    • Best,

    Daisy
