It Came From Inner Leg

A bit of a gruesome and unsolved mystery: about a week before I left Japan, I noticed a little bump on Keiko's leg. A hard white point was protruding from the skin. I asked her what it was and she said it had been there a couple of months. Nothing like leaving a weird object in you. I asked her if it was Ok that I try and remove it and she replied that she'd tried quite a few times but to no avail.

Pulling at it caused some discomfort but I didn't realise how much it was hurting until she starting crying in agony. Was it a piece of bone? Some type of nerve? It was all quite gross, and consider that I'm a wuss when watching hospital dramas, I was pretty brave when I tweezered off some pussy bits. Told you it was bleurgh.

The object was more dislodged and looked like it could be pulled out, although we took a break when it popped back in.

We squeezed around it when suddenly...

Waaaaaaaaaaarghhhhhh

And that was me screaming.

I have no idea what it is, but the whole piece popped out. This is it straight after, and then removed:


Is it a claw from an animal? Dirt? An alien? I even considered putting some water on it 'The Faculty'-style to see if it reanimated. Whatever it was, it was in there for a loooong time.

Still to this day I have no clue. The pictures gross me out every time I look at them.
