Got a problem with my toe..

Got some sleeving stuck over my big toe... Pretty well stuck at that.

It hurts a bit but that's going away as my toe numbs...

It's like one of those finger traps... If I try to pull it it just gets tighter but its too stretched to try to bunch it up and remove it.

Ideas?

Sorry *hahahaha*

Ok, in all seriousness, grab either side of the sleeving and pull away from your toe, you should find the weaves getting unweaved and coming loose.

Yea that's what I had to do. It wasn't easy because I managed to get it folded over itself so it was double layered and holding itself together.... Don't ask

I'm not going to judge the guy, I've put my toe in some pretty unorthodox places in my time...

Well, it was until I found out there's a fetish based around that...

not really, if you smash the bottle the neck is still intact, I had to ice up and lube up my finger to get it out
