A member asked:
I got an splinter today,a small piece of hair got under my skin,tried to bite it off,it went inside and i got a blister,can it go into my bloodstream?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No but: it can cause an infection and THAT can go into your bloodstream. You have to monitor that hair splinter closely, if it swells up, gets purulent (pus coming out), hurts, gets hot, etc. signs of abscess then you need to get medical attention right away. Hope this helps and thanks for trusting HealthTap.
