DIY SurgeryMajoringram tells us: I once had a wart on my hand and went to the doc to get it frozen. It hurt, lots. Instead of having to go back for more, I got my trusty rambo knife and cut the thing off. Three years later, and not even a scar!

splinterMany moons ago I used to drink and smoke at the Royal Exchange in Camden, a very dirty and unkempt pub that had only one redeeming feature - its extremely liberal attitude to the smoking of marijuana within. Anyway, I'd been in there on the Monday, wearing a pair of jeans on my lower half, when I caught my calf on the *very* splintered edge of a bench.
Four days later at work, my calf was very itchy. Thinking I had an infected follicle or something, I gave it a good scratching only to discover a little sharp, hard edge. Pulling at this, I extracted a splinter about an inch and a half long and abour a quarter of an inch wide at the thick end; it had managed to pierce my jeans and my skin and I'd been carrying it around with me all that time without realising.
Horrible, it was.
