Um. I stepped on a piece of glass over a week ago. Got most of it out but one shard was left. It was deep enough that I couldnt feel it with my fingers on the outside. I could feel it when i walked, though. An annoying dull pain
It got a smidge infected and today it POPPED OUT! Ive been picking at it all week, and that infection got it to puss up and pop like a pimple.
Omg. Feels so good. Soooooo gooooood. 
No one in my real world life is as happy about this as I am!!!

I'll be happy for you.
You must be so relieved. I bet that was both annoying and painful!!!

WHAT a RELIEF!! I'm very happy for you; I know foot pain s*cks. Knowing you don't have to have someone cut into your foot to get out the glass has to feel amazing!

Good Job sister.
Now pick up a bottle of Betadine next time you are out to pour into that wound and to have on hand for any similar injury in the future.
Then it won't get infected.

One other thing you should do is call your Dr and find out when your last tetanus shot was, and if more than 9 years go get it.
With the baby I'm guessing you got a DPT with your pregnancy. BUt check.
