I just recently got out of treatment for drug abuse and well I relapsed because of some serious stress going on in my life. Anyways I know now after 8 months clean I made a horrible mistake. I've never used needles before but I wanted to try because others around me were doing it. So my friend who was super high dosed me in my right arm right below my elbow in a small vein. She missed twice digging around and poking me about 4 times until she finally got it in. I told her I'd do it but she wouldn't give up. Ughh... so I afterwards I got this large lump from her missing. Pretty big the size of the bottom of a soda can. It was really hot and red. By the end of the night the swelling was almost gone I kept rubbing it. This was Thursday...now it's Sunday and my arm is incredibly bruised and it hurts like a deep bruise. Its still a little warm but not screaming hot like it was. The bruise is like 5 inches by 3 inches in an odd half mood shape. I'm worried. Is this normal since she was digging around and poking me over and over? She did have to dose me three times because she missed the first two times. Looking back I'm lucky I didn't overdose or something. This bruise is huge I live in a clean and sober house and it is hell trying to hide this thing with how hot it is outside. The bruise is big not black or anything but like a light brownish color.
My next question... In my left arm I shot up the next day in the crease of my elbow. There was no mark there but today Sunday I have a bruise towards the inside of my elbow running towards my bicep when I actually dosed in the outside of my elbow high forearm like 4 inches away. Why is the bruise so far away?
I'm freaked out. I normally stay away from needles but I was curious. I'm done with this shit! Any advice on what I should do would be great! Thanks!
