Injected in hand, still painful and red

C'mon, schiz. Ya keep this up and there will be another mod opening. Can ya please just moderate yer moderation? lol jk
Appears one has reached a point of minimal return and maximum fuckery with this drug shit.
Love ya mate and just see a long road ahead - or short depending.
Please
 
So I injected a ksalol with bupre in my handveins and since then its been painful and looks like its swollen a bit. Should I go to the hospital?
How long ago has it been since the swelling? Sounds like you might have missed?
Is there any bruising? Does it feel more warm to the touch then the other hand?
I'd start applying a warm compress, and if you can't stand it any longer then get it looked at by a Doctor.
 
So you're banging tablets into your hands? Are you using micron filters?

Hands and feet are the worst places to inject. Extremities have less blood flow and the veins are small leading to potential complications. Plus there is a high concentration of nerves which leads to 'ouch ya fucker!'

If it continues to get worse over a couple of days then seek medical help.

But I highly recommend you avoid your hands. My hands are fucked and I have quite nasty circulation problems every winter.

And I haven't touched a needle for over ten years...
 
Alright Thanks. I ll keep an eye on it over the next days. And i dont normally shoot benzos ofc.
My hands used to randomly swell up sometimes when I shot in them quite a bit, even when I didn't miss a drop, sometimes they'd be swollen for a few days. I think sometimes you can hit or irritate a certain nerve or something that makes them swell.

The pain/redness/heat are the important things, as mentioned...you may need a small course of anti biotics.
The warm compress is a good idea, or a long bath, soaking it. Not if you're nodding though lol
 
Sounds like a bad miss.
But keep an eye on it. If the swelling and redness doesn't improve in a day, best get it seen to. Specially if any heat or tenderness develops 'cause that would indicate a developing infection that could turn into a nasty abscess if left untreated.
You might want to put some ice in it to bring the swelling down.
