Even if you are able to remove the glass fragments, you are still faced with the real possible of a bacterial infection!. You must seek professional medical help!. Without it you could not only cause the foot to become infected!. But you could very well contract a disease refer to as Lockjaw!. You must receive an injection to prevent the on-come of the Lockjaw!. Go to the County Public Health agency in your town or better yet the Emergency room!. They have funds available for situation like your no money or insuranceWww@Answer-Health@Com

get a needle and dig it out take something for the pain first!.if it is swollen then it has some amount of puss in it!.once you reopen the wound and sqeeze it should ride out on the puss!.then clean it with alcohol and feel around on it for each piece and do the same with it even if you have to wait a few days!.fur it to get puss in it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It is very important to have the glass taken out before it starts to travel and can end up anywhere!. Go to the doctor!. NOWWww@Answer-Health@Com
