I have had something like that, and it went away. I have gotton a magnifying glass and found a splinter so small it couldnt have been any bigger than a tiny hair. Other times, I never saw a thing, but it eventually worked itself out as many will eventually will.
I do think sometimes it is other things including a sting from an insect. I know it can be painfull for something so tiny, but unless it becomes red or swollen very much, just tough it out or get someone to kiss it. Yes, it really does help sometimes, or at least makes you feel a little better.

TRY PUTTING A LITTLE WHITE GLUE LIKE ELMERS ON THE SPOT THAT HURTS, LET IT SIT FOR A LITTLE BIT AFTER IT DRIES, THEN PEEL IT OFF, IF YOU DO HAVE A SPLINTER THATS STICKING OUT AT ALL THEN IT WILL PULL IT OUT. IF ITS NOT STICKING OUT THEN YOUR S.O.L. UNLESS YOU CAN SQEEZE IT OUT.

i know this is probably really bad for you but its what i did. i thought there was something in my foot but i didnt see anything. i was playing with tweezers and i jsut kinda started picking at the skin where it hurt. it actually did work there was a piece of glass in my foot. but again thats probably bad so you may not want to listen to me. hope i helped

Sorry.... I hope it gets feeling better :) If there's nothing you can see, there's probably not much you can do. I have that happen sometime. It'll hurt for a bit, and then it'll stop. Just waiting it out would be your best bet.

soak it in some hot salt water for 15 minutes then try soaking it in peroxide for a few minutes to see if it boils anything out. besides that: use a needle to push out whatever is in there. good luck

sorry dunno what to tell u but if it's a booboo you should get someone to kiss it better

Omg whadda ya know! chuck norris is here!

*chuck norris gives u a virtual kiss for your booboo*

I have had this problem before and usally its a very small piece of glass. Soak you hand and squeeze it out. And if that don't work it will come out on its own.
