When dealing with a fishing hook embedded in skin, first remain calm and assess the situation. If the hook is superficially embedded and the barb is not deep, you may carefully push it through following the curve to expose the barb, then clip the barb with pliers and back the hook out. For deeper hooks or those near sensitive areas, seek immediate medical assistance. Always clean the wound thoroughly with antiseptic after removal and monitor for signs of infection.

In Pakistani local culture, traditional remedies might be suggested by elders, such as using specific herbs for disinfection. However, modern medical treatment is strongly recommended to prevent complications like tetanus or severe infections. It\“s also culturally common to seek help from community clinics or local health workers who are trusted and accessible.
