Good luck on your fast recovery!
I stubbed my
I was tearing down the inside of an old restaurant, and stepped on a really long nail. I was lucky though -- it went
right between my toes (my big toe and second toe), and I didn't get hurt (which was especially lucky, since the damn
thing poked through the top of my shoe and up about an inch -- it was a LONG nail).

I stepped on a clam farmer's pitchfork up in Cape Cod when I was much younger. I ended up with two sweet holes right in
the bottom of my foot.
And according to my uncle, the doctor, a quick dip in the seawater is all I needed to somewhat clean it out and
sterilize it. I'm still alive, so I guess he was right.

I stepped on a rusty nail sticking through a roofing tile when I was a kid. Also, at kiddy camp, I stepped on a shredded
aluminum can and sliced my foot open. Blood was everywhere, and as a three year old, I was crying too hysterically to
explain. Luckily, one of the other kids was there. "I think he stepped on a bee," she helpfully explained to the
counselor.

I once got a HUGE splinter in my foot, from running and sliding down a hall with a hardwood floor in my socks. I pulled
half of it out, but the other half was embedded deep in my foot, kind of parallel with it. It hurt like hell for days
but I was too cheap and poor to go to a doctor. After about three days my body had had enough of it and squired out the
puss-covered splinter.

I didn't step on anything, but I had a crochet hook stab about a centimeter into the web between my fingers. Had to
twist it until it came out the same way it went in. Almost had to cut it out.

If you have a major trauma past the 5 year mark but within the 10 year mark where NO METAL is involved... they give you
the tetanus shot again anyway... talk about heaping on the pain....

I stepped on a nail once. It was a full-sized, rusty one out in the yard near where our pet dogs would uh, "do their
business". I screamed bloody murder. I was probably 8 or 9. I think that was the last time I got a tetanus shot.

I stepped on a rusty one in '87, at an empty lot my uncle bought shortly before. He built a house on said lot months
later. In '94, he demoed said house and put in a 66' doublewide. During the demo, I salvaged some wood and stepped on
non-rusty one.
Just a few days ago, I was moving some 12'-long 2x6 borads, and a nail sticking str8 out the end on one poked the palm

tetanus shots for me; my immune system kicks germ butt just fine, thank you very much. Word to the wise: Your immune
system has the ability to kill any bug on its own. Don't let anyone lead you to think it can't. Think it can. Thought

Stepped on a nail while wearing flip flops as a kid. The nail was pointed up through a 2x4ish size piece of wood. It
went all the way though my foot, and stuck out the top of my foot. The feeling of having to lift my foot off the
nail/board will haunt me forever. I never told my parents, because I was afrain of getting in trouble for being on a
construction site.

About 7 years ago, I was cleaning out the shed in flip-flops and stepped on one of those heavy-duty garden rakes,
putting about 1/2 inch in my heel. Hurt like hell.

A tiny finishing nail? An unlikely angle? Strange to say the least. Well, it wasn't standing on end.That would be an
unusual balancing act. The explanation is far more simple.It was a poison dart shot from a blowgun.The convenience of
you lying on the sidewalk on your back in broad daylight trying to get a glimpse of the orbiting tool bag made you all
too vulnerable.

By the way, I dont think a Bandaid is an appropriate antidote for poison darts.

Three summers ago, I tripped on my computer's power cord and somehow a knitting needle I'd left on the floor went right
through my toe. It was pretty gruesome. They had to use the jaws of life to cut enough of it off to transport me to
the hospital.

Being a Pisces I always seem to step on things and hurt my foot, but the craziest thing to ever get stuck in my foot was
a toothpick. It went in under my foot, and came out in between my toes. Couldn't get it out myself. Had to stumble into
the doctors and have them rip it out.

My brother pushed me onto boards when I was little and one went into my back, one into the back of my knee, and one into
my heel. We like to joke that he crucified me. Good times being the little sister of two much older brothers; certainly
teaches one to be resilient.

In the 1989 earthquake in Santa Cruz CA, my lava lamp fell off my dresser in the UCSC dorm. I put the broken glass in a
paper bag, but didn't throw it out right away. A couple days later I lost my balance and a big shard of glass went into
my knee. Blood was pulsing out but I kept pressure on it until I got to the health center for stitches and a tetanus
shot.

ONce, walking in a bad neighborhood, I stepped on something long, rusty and needle-like. After panicking for about five
minutes, I pulled it out... Only a good ol' rusty wire! I went to the doctor for a tetanus shot, and nothing of value
was lost. NO AIDS ridden heroin needle for me that day!!!

I stepped on a sewing needle when I was a kid. It managed to poke directly into a small vein, and it turned out my

In college my brother jumped off the couch and landed on some keys on the floor. The ignition key to the car was deeply
in his bare heel. I tried to pull it out Rambo style but failed, heel skin is really strong. Had to borrow a car and
some shots of Lidocaine later it was removed with brute force.

When I was in high school, I went sliding down a hallway in my socks. The floor was wood. I ended up with a splinter
over four inches long along the sole of my foot. You could see the whole length of it through the couple of layers of
skin it was under. The school nurse had to remove it with a pair of pliers. Very little blood though.

Some years ago my friend had a pair of ninja boots (tabi boots.) He loved them. He was like "Ninja boots! The best
boots ever!" One day he had them on when he stepped off a ladder and stepped on a nail in a board. I remember watching
him pick his foot up and the board came along with it. After that he was like "Ninja boots! The best boots ever!
Until they invented f------ nails."

when i was 13 i fell off my bike and managed to imbed a nail up my knee. Once I realized what I'd done, I whimpered for
my dad to wake up (he worked midnights) to come pull it out. He just yanked it out and told me to go watch tv inside
until my mother came home to take me to get a tetanus shot. That is all.

in college i had an acquaintance who caught a giant catfish and took it home and put it in his bathtub. Apparently these
things can live for days in a bathtub, and after a week long coke bender he decided to off the thing by stomping its
head in. The catfish in a final act of resistance raised its spine which pierced the sole the stomper's boot, his foot
and came out the top. continued

continued from above. while the catfish spine did not give the stomper tetanus, it did make him violently ill. just goes
to show you that coke and catfishes are a bad combination.

About a year ago I stepped on nice framing nail. Unfortunately I was wearing sandals and didn't have a camera nearby. It
went a good distance into the arch of my foot. Then about a month later I stepped on a piece broken glass I didn't see.
Oddly enough I was wearing the same sandals..

I stepped on a tangerine thorn when pruning the tree this past spring. (Yes cold-staters, our trees have 4-inch spiky
thorns and fight back when you take their fruit.) It went through my shoe and into my foot about half an inch. Lots of
blood and very tender for a week or two, but I lived to tell the tale!

When I was about 12 my mom had a Christmas present 'bow maker' that was a cylinder that you load little plasitic arrow
heads onto. I stepped onto that. So I had a little plastic arrrow head in my foot. My mom pulled it out. I couldn't
even look. It hurt.
I've also had two 1/2 inch long wooden splinters go under the same pinky nail. That poor pinky. No scars from any of
that.

About 20 years ago i was doing some painting on the roof of a Dairy Queen and stepped on a nail. Pulled out the nail,
cleaned up my foot, no big deal. Next day the foot was a football. Got rushed to the emergency room. Spent 3 days in the
hospital hooked up to IV's. FYI-Its not the nail that gets you, its the bacteria in your shoe.

There was a pro golfer named Buddy Allin who suffered from terrible heel problems. When they x-rayed his heel, they saw
that there was a sewing needled embedded in it. He must have stepped on it as a child when his bones were softer, and it
was there ever since.
He had to live with it, as the only way to get it out would have been to shatter his heel.

About 5 years ago, I stepped on the clip of a metal clothes-hanger. It went in, hit the bone, and gouged out a chunk of
flesh. It bled PROFUSELY, but I'm terrified of stitches, so I used superglue instead of going to the ER. Burns like
hell, but it works. I still have a scar on the bottom of my foot.

While at work as a bartender this summer, the mirror bar that hangs overhead (storage area) fell down on top of me,
giving me softball sized bruises on all contact points, as well as driving 1970's mirrored, metallic trim through my
wrist and finger. Tetanus shots are awesome!

I fired a 16d nail into a board that had a knot. The nail hit the knot, the nail bent and went into my forearm that
wasn't holding the nailgun. My arm flew away from the baord it was holding. I figured it went in about an inch deep. Not
much blood, but I know pain.

Me and a friend once made an arrow from bamboo cane with a nail on the end, fired from a catapult which would drive it
pretty deep into a wooden fence panel. My friend managed to somehow fire it through the skin between his thumb and
forefinger...took a good bit of pulling to get it out and hes still got the scar. No tetanus though... Good times!
