Answers:
Get to a clinic or a hospital where there are nurses or physician's assistants who can get that glass sliver out of your heel!. All have the proper equipment to do so and have much experience extracting glass from heels!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Go the doctor/hospital A&E!. They might give you some painkillers and just get it out for you!.

I actually had that when I was a kid but never knew and it ended up getting embedded in my foot!. Then went to get an ex-ray on my ankle once and they informed me of a chunk of glass in my big toe!. They said if it didn't hurt, leave it in there!. So maybe it'll stop hurting in a while!. :) Not advised to leave it though!. Just a story!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'd try some kind of suction device if you have one!. Like a wide syringe or something!. Other than that, what I do is take a sewing needle and put it over a match/lighter flame for a second to sterilize it, then dig it out with that!. Probably gonna hurt, but what else can you do!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

if you cant get it out any other way, put tea tree oil on it and the galss will come out by itself!. even if you dont put the oil on it, glass always comes to the surface of the skin!. the t!.t!. oil just speeds up the process, so dont panic :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sterilize your tools with heat and dig it out with a needle and some tweezers!. It will hurt but it's worth it!. Soak it in hot water for about five minutes to make the skin soft and pliable then dig away at it!. Should work like a charm!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Use a saftey pin after u soak ur foot so the skin is soft or pour some kind of oil on it so it will slip out of ur skin easier!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
