What should you do if there are foreign bodies in a wound?

You can remove foreign bodies only when you are absolutely certain that doing so won't make things worse. Small splinters can be removed in the field, as can non-penetrating foreign bodies in the eye.

Anything that may intersect a blood vessel or underlying anatomical structure (like a bone or tendon) should be secured for transport and handled at the treatment facility.

When in doubt, secure and transport.
