I've been shooting cocaine for a little bit now, pretty much only in my crook. I noticed bruises and splotchy skin pretty much all over, mostly my legs though. Is hanging out with a heating pad and massaging the best way to go to help myself? I'm thinking getting my circulation is a good idea. Do I need to ice anything? Been drinking a shit ton of water and electrolytes and stuff as well. What else can y'all recommend (besides the obvious)?
 
Sounds like the toxic effects of levimisole (all cocaine is cut with it) that causes dark lesions on the skin

Water and heat and vitamins or whatever are not going to make shooting cocaine any less damaging to your health
 
Jesus that sounds like a bad cut to me. I never got anything like that from IV coke. Seizures yes but fucked up skin no. My bit of harm reduction advice is to smoke crack instead of shooting coke. IV coke is just fucked
