I am sorry to hear about your concern, but will be happy to assist you. This type of splinter is contracted from lumber or other vegetative materials. Wood splinters must be removed from wounds because they are associated with inflammation and risk of infection. Larger or deeper splinters can result in difficult removal, or localization of the foreign body. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
