A sliver works its way out of the body through a combination of the immune response and natural processes. When a sliver enters the skin, the body recognizes it as a foreign object, triggering inflammation and the recruitment of immune cells to the area. Over time, the surrounding tissues can break down and push the sliver toward the surface, or the immune response may help to encapsulate and expel it. If the sliver doesn't exit on its own, it may require medical intervention for removal.
