Of it just split. Maybe better to wait at least a week for it to fully heal?

Very easy...do you have a poking stick or something smooth not pointy.
Just rub on the foot for like 10min( a few breaks in between) then just peel off, hope it works for you Irritating the foot usually works for me.gl |

I assume it's a BTA? If the foot is inside a rock, your best bet is to break the rock, or chisel the rock until the can safely detach.

I have had good luck placing a pump in the tank like a MJ1200 (its what I have) and attach a hose and direct it at the foot. I alternate the power head and rubbing the foot with ice until it release. This only works if I can see the foot. I have spent up to an hour getting one to release so patience is a must. If the foot is buried inside the rock I don't even try. Thats probably why I have over 30 nems and have only bought 3
