There's a hair on the sole of my foot

It's thick and black, like an armpit hair or a pube. Or my dog's fur. I'm not sure if it's actually growing out of my foot or if a pube or dog hair just got lodged in my foot like a splinter somehow. Neither of those explanations really makes much sense. It looks like there's at least a few millimeters of it under my skin and I don't think hair grows from that deep inside you even if you are a mutant with a hair follicle on the sole of your foot, but how would a pube or dog hair get lodged that deep when the skin on the sole of my foot is really thick and hair isn't that sharp?

Is there a normal explanation for this?

    Hello! have you tried to pluck it? if its growing there it should be an obvious pain when you do (don't trim it, cause if it is a splinter, you're going to leave a lot in there to keep irritating you) - pull a hair out of your head first to get the idea ;D

    I have had a hair splinter from my cat and he has an amazingly soft coat, even I was surprised. It happened while I was doing my dishes in bare feet, I swore it was a piece of glass but I pulled it out (slid right out, didn't hurt coming out, just going in), and there it was!

    If its not a hair splinter then eww. That shit is gross and it needs to be sergically removed. You didnt mention anything about pain so you might need to seek a legit hair removal professional

    Simple explanation. You'be been masturbating too much. It makes you grow hair on the palms of your hands and soles of your feet. Also you'll go blind.

    I was thinking Morgellon's disease, but it's hard to be sure on that. Have you seen a doctor?

    Lol, it's probably just a hair splinter. I get them all the time (3 dogs and a cat that all shed like crazy) and they usually hurt just like a wood splinter.
    It happens.
