Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
It's not a toomah.

I've certainly had quite a few splinters get a small infection around them.
msbelle, it was on the fingertip? Not near the cuticle? That's my most common area for this kind of problem. Dried, cracked cuticles are easy doorways for infection.
Y'all are right, I got mixed up. 80m would be the correct answer, which makes for a big frictionless roller coaster. I shouldn't try to do physics and fix bugs at the same time.

Yes to the first question, but in a localized fashion-- I would get a little lymph for a splinter. I mean, he's not running a fever or anything, right? And do bug bites cause pus? I'm only saying this because finger pus is probably not worth the trauma of a doctor for mac unless you've got some other systemic symptoms.
In my vast knowledge as a doctor AND mother to several young children.
I'd try the hot water for a draw or a poke with a pin and a peroxide wash.

You know me...that's infection enough for me.
I'm all about the disinfected poking, but the problem isn't that, it's the little boy, and I don't know how that works.
