Sliver of glass in foot?!?

It was my parents' anniversary, and my dad dropped and shattered a wine glass, which he swept up and vacuumed. Apparently, one piece was till there b/c I just stepped on it a couple minutes ago, and I was turning while I was standing there, so it's stuck somewhere in my foot now, but it hurts too bad for m to take off my bandaid and try to find it and get it out. What to do? It HUUUUUUUURTS!!!!!!!! is it possible to get it jammed by a nerve, b/ceven when I don't move it, I just get waves...?

    hmm. sterilize the area/wound and rub all your instruments with pure/real alcohol. make sure u have good lighting- and if you can see it, go for it. if it's deep, then go to the hospital. keep on spraying neosporin over it and keep it wrapped till u see the doc.

    it will just keep hurting till you get the glass out and if you don't get the glass out then it will just get infected and hurt even more go to the hospital good luck

    depending on how big and how far the piece of glass is, i would suggest going to the hospital lovey, you don't want an infection from digging it out yourself.
