So I'm relatively new here and I hope this is the proper place to ask for advice.
I would also like to mention that I am somewhat new to the IV method(mainly because I'm kind of a germaphoeb and the risk of bacteria/infection scares the poop out of me) that being said I've decided to completely stay away from needles and continue with my usual method of administration(sublingual)
Around two weeks ago I missed when I attempted to give myself a shot of suboxone on the back side of my left hand.
.3ml solution
Of 2mg suboxone pill (crescent moon)
No michron filter but it was filtered thoroughly.
All my equipment(syringe, spoon,etc) and work station was also thoroughly sterilized
I am pretty sure it is an infection free abscess due to what I've read online.
I've also read that missed shots of suboxone usually take longer to absorb but I'm not sure
My concern is that in about two
(February 8-9th is the day I did this)
weeks, the size has not gone down significantly. Slight reduction in size temporarily, when I sit my hand in warm-hot water or press a warm wet cloth. Yet the overall size has stayed nearly exactly the same(hasn't gotten bigger or smaller)
Initially my grip was weaker than normal and the back of my hand felt like a really sensitive bruise(painful when pressure was applied). That lasted about 1-2 days and immediately after That, I've had an almost full range of motion, no more sensitivity(doesn't hurt to touch)
I am very reluctant to get medical treatment because I am afraid to get blacklisted which would make it nearly impossible to obtain prescriptions in the future.
I am not currently dependent on any substance,
Long ago i was a regular opiod user but now I only take suboxone occasionally
1st-I got the first half of the shot in with no pain or discomfort
2nd-When about a half of the shot was in safely, I shook my right hand a little bit which pulled the needle out of my vein slightly
(At the time I wasn't so sure)
3rd-At this point I should of pulled out but me being a novice I attempted to place the needle back in the vein(digging) without pulling out completely(ie:needle stayed in my hand the entire time.
4th- I noticed a sharp and cool sting immediately as i pressed the plunger down,
Not particularly painful but very different from what it should feel like
5th- As i removed the needle there was No excess blood and no pain
6th- i immediately noticed a bruise and when i moved my fingers around(rapidly) i noticed a pinching sensation, similar to what putting pressure on a regular bruise would feel like.
I can pull my fingers around with my other hand with no pain but when I move them independently, i feel the pinchings sensation
7th- the injection site is swollen with no discoloration, roughly the width of a 50cent peice and at the very center it is raised at least one centimeter. There is NO redness, NO excess heat, and I've felt perfectly healthy
(ie; NO fever or any other symptoms
Also i just received one-two weeks worth of amoxicillian(antibiotics), which i started taking today.
If i go to a Dr would they be able to do anything to help besides giving me antibiotics?
..........
Is this a normal length of time?
If i have to get medical treatment, is there anything i coud say that would keep me from being blacklisted?
From my description, does this sound like an abcess with NO infection?
I have an doctors appointment for friday, is this something i could speak with him about or would the hospital be more appropriate?
Thank you for your time and concern, I pride myself on using knowledge for harm reduction purposes and i know its better safe than sorry (as far as medical treatment goes) but because there's no redness, heat, or fever i wanted to at least check here before i bite the bullet and see a physician. 8(8?
