Splinter

How do you get a splinter out of a young toddler’s finger. I have no idea if I managed to get it or not but now he won’t let me check cause I imagine it hurts a bit. His whole finger tip was red 😞 so it must have happened yesterday

My son loses his ever loving mind when he gets a splinter so now we’ve learned to just ignore it and hope it makes its way out, if not you can get creams that draw them out

calpol syringe! put the tip of the syringe over the splinter and pull the syringe to draw it out of the skin x works every time!

Isnt there potential for infection if you ignore me? But yeah I second the Calpol syringe

Calpol syringe is clever! Will have to remember that one. I have a tool in my nail kit that I used. It has like a tiny metal loop at the end. Basically put it on the finger so the splinter was in the loop, press and slide.

@Chlo I tried that before but it either didn’t work or he wasn’t still enough for me
