If you've ever had a splinter and thought it's probably easier to just cut off your whole finger than spend hours painfully trying to fish out the tiny, sharp piece of wood - you're not alone.
It's the absolute worst.
But the days of hacking away chunks of skin with cheap tweezers are over, thanks to one mum's ingenious hack. All you need is a kid's oral medicine syringe.
Claire Bullen-Jones from Wigan, England, shared her pain-free splinter removal hack on Facebook and parents are absolutely loving it.
"Kids got a splinter? Grab the Calpol box and take out the syringe that comes with it! Make sure it's clean obviously!" the mum-of-two posted online.
