[quote=Anonymous]I know it is glass, because I dropped a wine glass and I was wearing very open crocs at the time, and the glass was in my shoe.  I tried to get it out, and then sort of left it.  It has been hurting on and off, and is really bugging me now.  I dug at it a few weeks ago, and then again last night, and think I'm getting close.....but don't see anything.  But there is a spot that bleeds alot wheniver i get to it, and it feels,like the spot where the glass is.  I've even used a magnifying glass and a very bright close up light.  I have neosporin on it with a bandaid.

I've tried soaking it regularly, and no luck.  I think it's time to get professional help.  What type of doctor should I go to? I don't think my primary care doc is the answer?  I'm terrified that its really deep and going to be a big deal.  I had major abdominal surgery this summer, and am just finally feeling back to myself, and loathe the thought of having to deal with this.  
And I've just started a new job, so will be hard to take ANY time off.  
Thanks. [/quote]
