       I literally had this exact thing happen to me about a week ago yet the article claims there has only been 26 cases in over 60 years. I call bullshit. I think it happens all the time its just people notice it, pull the hair, and it never gets a case study done.I have, in my life, probably had this happen in 20 different places other than my foot, my foot was only once. Every time its obviously a hair with a sharp end, and when i notice the hair i pull it and im fine.}inb4 its not an ingrown hair or anything as it always happens in places where hairs dont grow like my finger tips (most common) or as was the case last week the bottom of my foot.https://www.livescience.com/65881-hair-splinter.html#Science #Medicine #Medical

       @freemo lol. Yep. I had one just a few months ago. It was from my golden retriever and was shocking to pull a few centimeters out of my foot.Rare, indeed.

       @justin LOL good to know its not just me.Honestly I think the article confused two similar but different conditions.. a hair splinter (which is common and what the guy has in his foot), and " cutaneous pili migrans" which is where an ingrown hair creeps along the subcutaneous layer and creates a long hair under the skin... At least, thats what I could gather from reading up on it a bit.

       @freemo it had one yesterday, foot still kinda hurts. It was more a part of my nail, instead of a hair. Some things are not so rare as one might think, but indeed: if nobody makes a case study out of it, no one is going to notice.

       @freemo last one I can remember getting was a fallen eyelash that I slid my hand against on a flat surface.

       @freemo every time I trim my beard I get 5 - 10 of these in my fingers during the following days as I stroke it.Maybe I need a better trimmer...
