Walking on broken glass

[Roughquest]

My partner forgot to let me know he had accidentally broken a glass, so there I was last night paddling around in the kitchen in bare feet, when i notices little trails of blood coming from my feet, this happened more and more until the excrutiating pain began to hit me and I had to sit down, lots of little cuts on my feet! I am in agony today when i walk - i soaked my feet in hot water but they are still painful - how can i get rid of the glass splinters ? ouch !

Hmmm, i have done this before. You need to get someone with tweezers to get them all out. There will be loads of little bits you wont be able to reach.
Get them before your skin heels over them or else you will get more pain in a few weeks time.
As for your partner not telling you, i think it shows just how much he thinks of you... :)

I think I'd consider getting rid of the partner! Why on earth didn't he sweep up? Did you have soap in the hot water ?This and gentle sweeps with a soft flannel is all I can suggest. Put antiseptic cream on feet and wear socks in bed tonight.

Further to MrBen5's answer...get your partner to be the one to sit there with the tweezers. After that, I suggest he gives you a nice back massage, waits on you hand and foot and does all the chores/shopping for at least 6 months!

This has happened to me before. One night the cupbored with all the glasses in fell down and all the glasses smashed in the kitchen. I woke up, and sleepwalked downstairs and into the kitchen. I got a sandwitch from the fridge and went back up to bed. The following morning there was a half eaten sandwitch and a pool of blood all in the bed and up the stairs and evrywere. I couldn't feel my feet. Straight away i paniced and rushed to the doctors, which is just up the street. I was reffered to A&E. They put bandiges on my feet and i was ok. Apart from i couldn't walk for 6 monts after.
I don't know how they removed the glass shards from my feet, i'm just thankfull i can walk.

I think the hospital shine different coloured lights on to glass to make it show up as the shards are often to small to see
