Woo Hoo, I am finally splinter free!
I think once the anasthetic wears off it is going to really hurt - the splinter turned out to be over 1cm long and as thick as a matchstick. No wonder it would not come out! I've got another box of antibiotics and an extra dressing, hopefully that will be the last of it.
