It looks like a histamine reaction to me.
There might have been a impurity in the cut that you had an allergic reaction too.
Do you have any allergies?

I'm thinking the same, or that it's some kind of allergic reaction. Guido could certainly be right too, so take all the necessairy precautions. I've mainlined heroin before, was sure I was in a vein ( I used the same two veins for two years...please learn from that mistake), and experienced a burning, pins and needles sensation, followed by a nasty rash. I've once (and this sounds
real grimey, broken out in boils.) I am almost 100% certain this had to do with the cut, as I talked to other customers of the same connection who experienced similar reactions.
However, I also struck a nerve before and experienced similar results, though they were slightly different. It felt litterally like a ball of fire was running down my arms to the tips of my fingers. This was followed by a temporary lack of mobility in my hand (scared the
shit out of me as it was my drawing hand to boot) and some strange marks/patterns along the inside of my arm, as well as a lump on the back of my arm (which was confusing as it was no where near the injection site). After ten minutes I could use my hand again, though there was some lingering numbness, though that eventually faded too. I honestly thought I had hit an artery (as the burn shot down my arm,
away from my heart), but after talking to the nurses at my clinic, they led me to believe i had hit a nerve due to the lack of swelling. It was a real wake up call for me.
IMO, if the problem persists without any signs of going down after using antihistamine's, see a medical proffesional. It's humiliating, I know, but it beats the terror and paranoia of fearing you could lose your arm/hand.
