Splinter Removal
What happens right after the procedure?
After the splinter is removed, the site of splinter removal should be cleansed with soap and water. An adhesive bandage or other small dressing should be applied.
Once the splinter is removed, there is usually good healing within 3 to 4 days without any long-term complications. If increasing redness, swelling, pain, or purulent discharge is noticed, a healthcare provider should be consulted.
