Wife stepped on a tooth pick a few years back. Deep in here heel it broke off. a few days later it was driving her crazy so she went to the urgent care. They messed around with it and told her there was nothing in there. Charged us a fortune but swore there wasnt anything in there.

A few days later it was bothering her enough that she tore up her whole heel with a needle and pocked knife and eventually pulled out about 1/4" of tooth pick. Sweet relief!
