Ouch!!

Can't believe you went to hospital for a little thing like that. Continue pushing it in so that the tip comes back out of the skin then cut the tail of the hook off and pull through from the tip. It'll smart a tadge and you might need a sweetie for being a brave lad.
 
Why is there no blood?

You were right to leave it be, never take a puncture wound object out of a knuckle yourself (recent first aid course attendee).
 
I did that as a kid when my mate kicked my rod as I was putting the hook on.

It was a barbed hook that went in the tip of my finger and then came out of the side. I went to hospital and they sprayed the finger with a cooling spray, got some pliers and then started yanking/wiggling until it came out....how I didnt pass out I dont know.

The cooling spray number the outside of my finger, but certainly didnt feel like it had numbed the inside.

Not fun.

As did I Adam, once went fishing with some rough uns up near the ollerton roundabout on the A614. It was a crap day and we started messing about. A lad Called " fat drac" coz he looked like a fat Dracula with his buck teeth decided to do some major casting on a stream 5 ft wide. I was stood about 30ft behind him and the Hook hit my face near the tear duct. I was well and truly hooked, the fat **** tried about half a dozen times to free the hook which was stuck in some bushes according to him. I was squealing like a banshee with this soddin great big worm which looked like a python wriggling on the hook about 2 MM from me eye. It took about about five mins to get the hook out, which by this time I think I might of pissed me pants. We had to walk about 9 miles home down the A 614 and the A617 to Rainworth. The tossers laughed there heads off for about 8 3/4 miles. Then the reality set in that i might actually say summat to me mum and dad. A little reminder that you are only 12 and I am 16 and I will kick the poo out of you if you do say summat oddly makes you stay quiet. It was a crap summer holiday that year.

Thanks for helping resurface painful memories smiffŷ. 👍
 
Rip it out and throw yourself back into the water you'll be fine. That never did fish any harm. 😗😗😉😁😁
