I sewed through my finger once. Had to go to urgent care to get it out. No tetanus shot for me though, I'm allergic to it. It hurt worse when they pulled it out than when it went in. Definitely NOT something I want to repeat!! Hope yours heals as well and as quickly as mine did

I did the same thing this summer, only the needle broke into 4 pieces and left 3 of them in my finger.....short story is that it got infected and required surgery to get out big piece....please keep an eye out for swelling, redness or fevers....all sure signs of infection....and make sure all of the pieces are out!
