Question: How long should you keep a splinter in your skin? Is it okay for a splinter to be in your arm or your leg for a day or two? Will it cause an infection in a day or two? I just want to live.

Answer: Splinter will work their way out, your body rejects it.  When it does come out you will notice a little pus, not to worry, you'll live.  Put some antibiotic ointment on it and you're as good as new.
