Actually, you don't want to try to remove stingers by pulling on them, because you can squeeze more venom into your body that way. Get a straight-edged object, like a credit card or the back (blunt edge) of a knife, and scrape that across the stinger. Wash the stung area with soap and water, and if you're having a mild allergic reaction (slight swelling or itching) then a benadryl could help you out. If you can't get the stinger out by scraping, you might want to get a doctor to look at it so you don't accidentally push it in farther and make it worse. If it stays in, it could cause an infection.

Look, just dig it into your skin. but it might not even be there anymore, just the poison taking effects.

It sounds to me like you got stung by a wasp. Their stinger is the hardest to get out. Are you having an allergic reaction to the sting? Maybe a trip to the ER. would help you to find out what it was that stung you. Good luck and I hope that you will be ok!!

Good LUCK...

Take a trip to the ER ,Mate!!

Soak it in salt water for sometime and the skin will become lose. You can then take out with the help of a tweezers. use a magnifier if necessary. If it hurts, Put some onion juice there and then it will reduce the irritation. If it is a spider or scorpion, or bee, rubbing with tobacco will be good. But you have to remove the sting first.
