I stepped on some broken glass…?
about two months ago, and I thought I got the glass pieces out. Well, after still being in pain if I walked a certain way, I thought the pain was related to the ‘soreness’ of after being punctured with the damn piece…
If I put direct pressure on the area, I get a sharp pain, but I can’t see the glass. I’ve squeezed where I think the glass is, but nothing comes out, up, or moves, not even blood. I’m thinking the skin’s grown over it, but I’ve tried to use sterilized tweezers and a pin to peel back the skin, but still nothing!!
When I have shoes on, and walk on that foot, the cushioning doesn’t hurt my foot. When I’m barefoot, or even with just socks, it hurts like hell.
I need to know how to remove a piece of glass that’s embedded in the bottom of my foot, that’s not visible.
My doctor had said that it would ‘eventually’ come out on its own…yeah….RIGHT!! It didn’t bother me back then, but suddenly, it’s like the glass moved and now it hurts!! UUUughh…
Help!

I am no doctor but I recently had the same problem. You could try and find something like a cream that can draw it out. If that doesnt work, try buying the corn pads, the biggest you can find and put them on the area that hurts. It will keep the pressure off that area to some degree until it comes out. Or the last resort ijs to soak your foot and dig in there with some sterilized tweezers and scissors, but that will really hurt. I hope I helped you out!

If you put a slice of potato on it that should draw it out if there is a piece of glass in ur foot.. I know that sounds stupid but it works.. I had a tooth pick stuck in my foot and we had to do that to draw it out.
Hope it helps

i had a similar incident. i felt a sharp pain in my heel and had no idea why.After a few months one day i was at my heel and suddenly a chunk of glass just appeared! so if it’s not that bad painwise it will eventually surface but if you are in real pain go to a doc again.
