Default Eliminate 'splinters'

What have I got myself into?

Long story short: Bear broke into my shed. Wrecked door. I replaced
door. Basic sheet of 3/4" plywood, bordered by 1x4's (?,
1-3/8"X3/4"). I did not paint them.

Now, couple yrs later, I'm getting a lotta 'splinters' from the 1X4's.
Should I paint?, sand?, replace wood?, all the above? I'm not real
experienced, but willing to learn.

Just curious, did you use pressure treated lumber? I'm wondering whether
the choice of wood that was used was suitable, but I have no experience
to offer.
