    Hi Wildo7

    I had one those which was there for at least three weeks.

    I think I had a tiny splinter in the exact same place and it also turned white.

    I thought it was infected.

    I soaked mine in a solution of hot salt water twice daily for two days and it went away.

    Hope this helps

    Pat
