What happens if you get something in your foot, but it never came out?!


Question: What happens if you get something in your foot, but it never came out!?
I remember getting a staple (not the ones for paper, but the strong ones) stuck in my foot!. It was like deep underneath the skin!. That's why I didn't take it out, but I could see the color of it from my foot!. I dont ever remember it coming out!. What could've happened to it!?

This was a long time ago though!. I'm just curious!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
