Most of the pains appear in the fingers, hands and feet. To facilitate the process of pulling out the skin on the damaged part must be pre-steam. For this is enough for 10 minutes to dip your finger in warm water. If during this time sit still, the child can not, you can try a warm compress. At an early age children are afraid of such procedures, so it is best to get the pain together, when one adult holds on his knees the baby, and the limb, and produces a second manipulation of the needle. If you turn the procedure into a game, the original "removing a splinter" from the foot toy bear or dog, the child will be less scary.

If the tip of the splinter protrudes above the skin, can only with the help of forceps to get her out. If all the pain hidden under the skin, you have to resort to the use of needles. Should be treated with alcohol or hydrogen peroxide, and then easily pry the edge of the skin where splinter or sliver. In the future, the foreign body is removed with tweezers or fingernails. You must act confidently, because of risk of splitting splinters into small pieces. In this case, to get her will be much harder.
