I know this has probably been discussed millions of times and I did just do a good half hour of research and believe I will be fine, but just to make certain Id rather ask for opinions.

Ive shot up dope hundreds of times, only shot up coke maybe ten to fifteen times. Just did a normal sized shot, I have done bigger, it was 50 units. I know I registered, injected some, pulled back and was still in, then injected the rest. When I felt the area it was a huge lump that seemed like I missed it all. I couldnt feel any pain because my arm was/is numb. The numbness is starting to fade but there still isnt any pain. I put a warm washcloth over it and rubbed it in for about 15 minutes and the lump has shrinked about 50%. Im just tweaking out because Ive missed dope plenty of times with no serious side effects, but never missed with coke. There doesnt seem to be any swelling or rash. Do you think I will be fine? Ill keep an eye on it for the next 24 hours but any advice/comfort would be appreciated.
 
Yeah just keep an eye on it for any signs of abscess or infection. Other than that some warmth and pressure to help it dissolve (as you did) and then ice on and off for several hours and maybe a NSAID all to minimize swelling.

Pretty much everything you need to know right there.
 
Thanks guys. Like I said missed plenty of times with dope, first time with coke. Just strange how you can't feel it as it makes you numb. The swelling has gone down, of course there's still a slight bump there that hurts when pressure is applied but that's to be expected. Ill just keep an eye on it. Thanks again.
