How do I get this sliver out of my thumb? So i had a giant sliver in my thumb yesterday and i pulled it out. However, a part of it must have stayed in my thumb. I%26#039;ve tried to get it out but it won%26#039;t come out. Please tell me how to get the rest of it out. Thanks.

Best Answer

Go to the drugstore and buy some Drawing Sauve. It looks a little bit like axle grease so be sure and wear a bandage over it so it won%26#039;t stain your clothes, etc.

This usually takes two or three days to work and, since it also draws out infections, the wound will get very %26quot;pussie%26quot; and runny. Don%26#039;t worry, this is very normal.

In a couple of days, the sliver will start to work its way out and the wound will actually heal itself behind the sliver.

  • hmmmmmmm......try using a medicle needle, or put melted candle wax on it wait for awhile and pull it off (the heat from the wax should bring it to the surface and the wax sould capture it... Good Luck!!!
