Damn sorry to hear that. That's some painful stuff. Tried it once from stepping on a thorn that went straight into my big toe joint. Trimming the hedge in sandals. Not a good idea.
Antibiotics and painkilllers galore did the trick, but it was extremely painful, even with the drugs. Took at least a week as I recall.
Get well soon, pirate scum.
