BUG: persistent arrows and ice shards in player body

Annoying and extremely immersion breaking bug:

 

for the last half day, my toon has been running around with an ice shard impaled through her rear end and nothing makes it go away. For a while I also had an arrow sticking out of her back but that seems to have finally disappeared.

 

Anyone know a console command to make the damn things go away?

I found a work around for this bug on the Steam Forum:

 

1. open the console (usually the ` key but it depends on your keyboard)

2. enter 'sexchange' (without the quotation marks) and hit enter... you will (unsurprisingly) change sex and the arrows and/or ice shards sticking out of your body will disappear

3. enter 'sexchange' (without the quotation marks) and hit enter again... you will return to your previous gender (leaving it changed from your initial choice mid game may cause unexpected badness so I would not recommend it)

4. exit the console and play the game without various objects sticking out of your body :-D

Unequiping, and then equiping armor helped this in Oblivion. You try that?

 

 

That was the first thing I tried :thumbsup: ... but it does not work in Skyrim, only the console command did the trick

Had the same problem with an iron arrow stuck in my chest. The arrow isn't an unequippable item - even doing "removeallitems" in the console didn't get rid of it. However, I just walked into a cave and let myself get hit by 3 or 4 iron arrows from a vampire thrall archer. The third arrow replaced the one that was stuck, and after I killed the thrall all of the arrows disappeared. So it's annoying but not permanent.

 

Doing "sexchange" to change sex, then again to change it back, will also fix this. However I didn't want to do this in my real save for fear that it might have some other side effects I don't know about.
