this is my 3rd shot today of the same stuff this time however as soon as i began to push the plunger in( site is under wrist) my whole hand burned like i have never felt before so i immediately pulled the rig out and the burning began to dissapate. however now my whole hand is swollen so bad that i cannot move any of my fingers i have ice on it now (hense the sloppy typing as i can use only i hand) now the burning is mostly gonr but it still has a little brn and a vey weid sensation in my hand. wondering if anyone has experienced this before or knows more abot this than i do and may have some advise i would very much appreciate your response thank you
 
What were you shooting? You missed, it burned and swelled, it'll go away. If it starts to look like something from the movies, the jigs up see a doc.
 
Doesn't this sound like an artery hit to anyone?

OP, did you get a rush still? Was the blood dark and slow flowing when you registered, or a brighter red and frothier?

Here's some stuff about arterial injection:

If it's still swollen and painful in a few hours I would be heading straight to the ER, but that's just me....I engage in a lot of activities that require me keeping my hands.
 
it may be something minor. a few times a shot up, and my WHOLE ARM puffed up and was all red and white blotches all over it, i couldnt move my fingers, however it went away in 30mins, idk what the fuck caused that..but it went away shortly
