This one is deep and in the muscle or tendon. That complicates matters. They are going to let the doctors handle it.
I was wondering if that was the case, the string method doesn't work so well if they are deep like that. I had a buddy that got a treble hook deep in his hand like that, took three hard yanks to get it out and there was a lot of cussing and swearing at the boat dock. Lol
