Something's stuck in my finger. can it travel to my heart? do i have to get it cut out? it only hurts when i press on it. it's not swollen or anything

Foreign body : Having a foreign body stuck in your finger won't travel to your heart. Having it removed by your doctor would be recommended to prevent infection and relieve the discomfort.
