How can you remove pencil lead from under the skin?

Answer:
Try this: If the lead is still in, remove it with a needle and tweezers. If it is out there will still be some carbon black that will stay on the inside of the skin. If this is the case, just leave it alone. The only other option would be to reopen it and scrape the area clean and that would be too painful.
