Was the wire from : A surgery or was this a foreign body that was in your foot? If the latter, i hope you were seeing a doctor.....Did you have a tetanus shot? Any signs of infection?

Pesky slivers: Wire slivers, more than wood, have a way of working their way out. That is good for you. Now watch for signs of redness or swelling. If concerned , see a professional.
