you can put fingernail polish over that area and when it is dry ,gently pull it off and the sliver should come with it

I use a sewing need. I slip it in under the sliver and pry it up a bit. This hurts a bit and makes the hole larger. At this point I can use the sewing needle or some tweezers to pull the sliver free.
Some times I just try to bite it out. Not much fun either!

Either pull it out with a sterile needle or with tweezers.
