How to Remove a Stubborn Splinter with no Pain or Needles (HOME REMEDY)

A splinter is a fragment of any foreign object that penetrates and becomes lodged inside one’s body. Many people try and remove splinters with needles.
The problem with this approach is that children especially don’t like it, because picking at a splinter with a pointy object can sometimes hurt until part of the splinter is exposed and the rest pulled out with a pair of tweezers.
The second problem with the needle approach is that it doesn’t always work if the splinter is very deep or quite thin and hard to see. Most people also don’t want the hassle or expense of going to a doctor.
What most people don’t realize is removing even a deep splinter is easy with magnesium sulfate, better known as Epsom salts. Many people are familiar with an Epsom salt bath for sore muscles or to improve sleep.
Epsom salts are a hugely beneficial way – to draw toxins even a splinter right out of the skin.
You can either soak your finger a few times a day in a cup of warm water and Epsom salts or make a poultice with it. The poultice is much faster and more effective.
To use the poultice route, take a small pinch of Epsom salts, place it on the bandage section of a regular, large band-aid and wrapped the finger with it. Change the bandage once a day or if it gets wet in the shower.
Another option is to put a bit of magnesium sulfate paste - which costs just a few dollars on amazon - on the affected area, and cover with a bandage. Magnesium sulfate is the same thing as Epsom salt.
Within 2 days, you should find the Epsom salts poultice has worked! The end of that thorn will be sticking through the skin!
You can then pull it out with tweezers.
The swelling and soreness in the finger will go with the removal of the thorn.

For invisible splinters "catus" I soaked in warm waters with dish soap and used tooth brush to brush splinter and used my thumbs nails to scrape the splinter areas, repeated the process until it gone. Take me less then 5 minutes to the it off.

Their us a faster and cheaper way of removing a splinter and uts a item every one should have in their restroom, white toothpaste and a bandage cover a good thickness of white toothpaste over the infected area and place the bandage over it leave it on for 24hours and the splinter should be out the only catch is you have to use this method as soon as you get the splinter for it to work. Their is no pain nor blood with this method.
