In the summer, many people face such an unpleasant problem as a splinter.
Of course, a foreign body in the skin can cause pain and discomfort.
How to properly remove a splinter without hurting yourself? Let's look into this in more detail.
If the splinter is not deep, you can use a bandage. You just need to stick it on and pull it sharply. Thanks to this, the splinter should stick to the sticky side.
You can also use tweezers that have been pre-treated with alcohol or antiseptic.
However, there are situations when the splinter is deep. In this case, the patch and tweezers are powerless, so you can use a needle treated with alcohol. To do this, you need to stretch the skin and pull out the splinter with a needle. This should be done carefully and slowly.
After removing the splinter, it is important to treat the area with an antiseptic and then cover the area with a bandage.
Now you know how to remove a splinter correctly.
