I've gotten hairs imbedded in my feet before. My husband has such thick wiry hair that they become ingrown on his face. If one of his hairs is on the floor and I step on it, it pokes right into the bottom of my foot like a splinter, and boy, is it hard to get out!
I wear house shoes with rubber soles on them most of the time when I'm in the house to protect my feet. I have to check my feet periodically because of ingrown nails and deep cracks from dryness that sometimes cause problems, so I look for any cuts or other oddities while I'm at it.
Hope fixing your foot isn't too big an ordeal. Lord knows you're having more of your share of them right now.
