Life hack: Remove glass from your hand or foot easily

Dropping glass then stepping on it has to be one of the worst feelings. Not only does it hurt, but it can be very difficult to remove.

You could grab the tweezers but if the little piece of glass is stuck in there, you’ll need a bit more to get it out.

To do this, you’ll simply need baking soda and a little water.

Work the baking soda and water into a paste and then apply to the wound. Place a bandage or bandaid on the area, then the next day remove it.

The glass should be sticking out of the skin.

This method also works for splinters.

If you need quicker removal, try soaking your affected area in vinegar for 30 minutes and see if it makes the splinter or glass rise to the skin.
