How To Get A Piece Of Glass Out Of My Foot Which Got Stuck 1.5 Years Ago?
A year and a half ago i broke my french press and glass shattered everywhere. When I was cleaning it up a small piece of glass got stuck on the top part of my foot very close to my ankle. It still has not come out. It moves every day especially when I exercise. Recently its been getting stuck in my ankle and some tissue/muscle. Its been swelling and hurts more than usual. I already went to a doctor that said he would probably tear my foot up trying to get it and still may not be able to get it out. How do I get this out?

Local exploration and removal is of choice for any foreign body. A check xray of ankle is required before exploring to localize it.
