In many cases, a splinter can work its way out on its own as the body naturally pushes it out through the skin. However, if it does not come out and causes pain, swelling, or infection, it may be necessary to remove it manually using sterilized tweezers. Keeping the area clean can help prevent infection while waiting for it to exit naturally. If you're unsure or if complications arise, it's best to consult a healthcare professional.
