Will a Silver or Splinter go away on its Own ?

try hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to sterilize your finger. H2O2 is inexpensive ($2 for a big bottle at the grocery store). just pour it on your finger. this may sting if it is really infected, and it will 'bubble' too, but it will kill all the germs. you can then try to use tweezers to get the splinter out. if you still can't get it out, put a band-aid over it until you can go to the doctor to get it out. good luck!
