Managed to work it back out over a few days, but required antibiotics etc. Leg and that deep is a step up in ouch though.

The body should encapsulate it I am told.

I hope you've got a few antibiotics VC. Since it's so deep you may not be able to tell it's infected from the top, just a sore leg and might leak stuff into ya blood system. It is pretty small though so hopefully it breaks down and pisses off
