my husband worked at a tree farm yesterday and stepped on some kind of thorn.  It is now imbedded in his foot.  i took him to an Urgent Care center who x-rayd it and tried to remove it but couldnt.  They put him on 2 antiobiotics and told him to wait to see if it comes out on its own but to follow up with a surgeon if not.  My husband is in a lot of pain with it and cant walk without crutches.  Do I follow up with a surgeon today?
It's better to follow surgeon ASAP. This may get infected despite antibiotics as long as the thorn is inside. So get it removed ASAP.
