I have about seven thorns or some kinda pointy things stuck into different places all over my hands. And I can't for the life of me get any of them out.

And they hurt like hell.

Any ideas on what I could to do get them out? I'm tired and unable to think.

Damn!

I've found another, just a second ago, right in the tip of my left hand pointing finger.

It's pretty small, but it just won't come out. Not hurting though, which is at least something.

Not hurting until I try and get it out, anyway. Now it hurts, and I'm typing one handedish again. Argh.

For the pain I suggest alcohol, no not for your hand but for you to drink, the more the better : )

Use warm water, softens the skin and reduces the infection risk. IF they are under the skin you can get this lotion that helps remove skelfs (sp?) which draws them to the surface of the skin. No idea what it is called but it is green and looks like a gel.

I can type because they aren't in my finger tips, thank God.

And I'll tell you what I've been doing in another topic, once I get these damn things out.

I'm currently using tweezers anyway, but they're really deep under the skin, so it's not a case of simply pulling them out.

And yeah, I've thought about either heating my hand or cooling it... but which is the proper way, with ice, or in warm water?

I'm confused and in pain.

And I'm the only one in the house, no one to ask.

Mother like figures usually have the answers to this kind of thing, and some kind of special magic lotion.
