Touchdown! Greaser!
I thought about putting this in Medical Topics, but that didn't seem quite right.
And I'm not sure if I first read about this here on POA or elsewhere, but I have used it for this several times and each time I was amazed at how well it works.
I was working in the yard to day and something stung or poked me right through the leather gloves. It started to hurt pretty bad so I quit working and took the glove off. My finger was really sore but I couldn't see a splinter or thorn or stinger or anything. So I wrapped a piece of duct tape around the finger kind of tight and let it sit for about an hour. When I took the tape off, whatever it was that was hurting must have come off too because the finger is fine. I've done this a few times and it has worked every time.
