Stuck in needle and then pulled back blood and pushed through (suboxone). When i pushed in i felt a sting but couldn't tell there was a bump forming but i pulled back again and blood still came through. I am tolerant to it anyway because of prescription and so it gives me no noticeable affects so i cant tell what i had done. i do now know if i missed completely or what had happened.
When finished there was a small bump that i tried to poke through with a needle to drain it if i had missed ( dunno what im doing anyway) and nothing happened.

3 days later I now have a warm,sore,red spot on forearm that is slightly roundish around the injection spot.
(the whole red area is almost 2x2in ,not a square but more of a rounder spot)

from the top to bottom of this red spot (towards wrist/elbow) there is a somewhat hard area about as round as a quarter.

there is no noticeable, blatant bump when looking directly at it but when i look to it from the side i can definitely tell it is swollen.

Can anyone tell me what they think could be happening or what i had done to cause this And Also do i need to Seek medical attention if its Gonna get Worse?

its happened twice before and went away at about a week or a little more but im just afraid that it could be different cause i thinks it might be little bigger than before and it was bigger shot (+water/+Bup)
 
3 days later a missed shot is usually gone. Apply heat and massage to drain it. See a doctor though first chance I reLly think it should bs gone by now usually it would bs a flat bruise by day 3 IME
 
Haha I just moved your BDD thread to here. Please don't cross-post, if you post in the wrong forum we will move it or you can PM one of the mods about it :)
 
Please don't double post threads.

I would advise that you get it checked out by a medical professional.

Asking on an internet forum is fairly useless, we don't know the damage you have done and giving advice other than get it check out by a medical professional is purely speculative.

If you are concerned - go to the ER/doctor.

Closed.
