Hi all,
My six year old son was playing outside today, and he got a thick sliver under his nail. It looks like it went into his nail at the side, and unfortunately there is no 'end' sticking out. I tried my best to get at it with tweezers, and clipped the nail as much as I could to get at it, but no luck. Is it a possibility that it will come out naturally, or will it get infected? I am not sure if I should take him to the doctors, as they will probably have to cut a chunk of his nail away. I tried taking a picture, but it won't focus enough on the nail. Any thoughts?
