Congratulations. You just gave birth to a bouncing baby tree.

I once had a splinter go in under my nail to past my first knuckle. It was barely under an inch

...I was not expecting the cuticle clippers to manage that without accidentally clipping the splinter.

I had a way tinier splinter lodged between my nail and the skin beside it. Impossible to remove. It hurt like hell. After a week, the tissue around it became white and chipped away. New skin grew back behind the shed off block of dead skin. The tiny splinter was still inside the block of dead white skin.

Fascinating how the body deals with bad things and heals. No doctors. No surgery & complications. Zero expenses. Just 1 week of pain in the tip of my middle finger.

the instant that splinter was removed imagine how good that felt

[sherrywilemon]

That's no splinter, that's the whole tree! I bet that poor person felt instant relief! If that were my hand I would of cleaned it with alcohol then iodine then antibiotic cream and a bandage.

I got a splinter about 3mm diameter and 15mm long in the back (non palm side) of my index finger and it was extremely painful. I went to the hospital emergency room and they only bandaged it. A day later it had swollen so much that I couldn't bend my finger. I went back to emergency and they gave me antibiotics. The next day it was even more swollen and I realised that the splinter/twig was still in there and I pulled out a bit of it. The next day the swelling was less and there was a transparent scab over the hole where I could still see a bit of twig moving so I cut it and got the last piece out. The pain subsided almost immediately and the an hour later the swelling was completely gone. The plant was oleander which is quite toxic which probably didn't help. So much for emergency doctors.

Happened to me a few days ago, dude did a u-turn and completely stopped in a 55MPH zone .. had to slam on my breaks ..

I've gotten a few thorns like that from plum thickets over the years. I usually just let it fester up and then pull it out

[alexanderlevy]

Cuticle cutters are a great way to get a grip on something if you have the control - they can both cut and clamp with great precision. Beautiful removal.

Working with pallets all day i can say a pair of nail clips come in handy way more than i ever thaught they would

[samgraham]

This looks more like a thorn or needle if you will. Here in Texas they can be twice that size or more (length and width) from a mesquite tree. Yes, that lovely wood that is so awesome to cook with and flavor meats with can also pop car tires! They have wicked thorns. As do many other plants here!

That aint a splinter thats a whole branch 😨

[eliassalinas]

Bro I would've screamed 😮😮 from pain . I watch a lot of videos about these things and it makes me wonder how some of these people have these things for years 😑

[margaretcouls]

Put baking soda with water paste over the spot and cover with a bandaid over night. The next day it will slide out easily.

[orhanyuksel]

Waw un qui n'a pas fait durer ce genre de vidéos pendant 5min 🎉

[nancyruckman]

Oh that's gotta feel so much better!!

[Angelrat]

After that, the splinter said "I AM GROOT!"

I once had a splinter in my finger. I tried to remove it, got ahold of it with pliers and it wouldn't budge. It had to be surgically removed. It was 1/32" thick and 1" long and embedded in the distle knuckle joint on my middle finger.

Every time I move, a sheet of OSB I ended up with a splinter like that. So remember your leather gloves before you do so.😊
