Glass in my skin?


Question:
I think i have a really tiny bit of glass in my finger, like a really tiny bit. Will it cause an infection, or is it anything to worry about?
I can't see it but i accidently smashed a milk bottle and my finger feels a little sore. Thanks

Answers:
i would try to find it to get it out if you can. otherwise, most likely your body will push it out itself. if your finger becomes red and starts to hurt, i would see a doctor pronto. also i would put something like betadine, iodine, alcohol, or neosporin daily on that area just to prevent an infection.
dont try to take it out! that could be worse
medicate it
bandage it
and go to a doctor
if you take it out it could become worse
even if its tiny
