Harm Reduction Trial: Hirudoid cream - heal superficial track marks

[blackjesus]

Hey guys, just wanted to post a quick thread about my current trial with Hirudoid cream. I'll take some pictures when I get the chance, and I had heard about this cream being discussed here, and elsewhere about it being "the only thing that works" for collapsed superficial black veins due to black tar use.

I just recieved it today, I took a chance and bought some online because the cost of the cream was much cheaper than a doctor visit, so i figured i'd try and have it delivered and if it didnt show, no big loss as it was really not alot of money.

Anyhow, I took a small dab around the size of a qtip and spread that around the crook of each arm and then took one more small dab of the same size and put it all on one bad track on the posterior side of my palm. having that much "concentrated" in one area seems to itch/irritate/burn ever so slightly but i dont know if its supposed to be used in a concentrated area or whether its supposed to be spread out evenly.

I'll update with pics and more info as soon as possible.

It is great for tracks and vein care. Just make sure you clean it off before you shoot up in that spot again.

ok this is like day 3 or 4 i've been doing every morning and night. i missed one night so it hasnt been very steady but as routinely as possible.

My thoughts: BTH seems to collapse my veins very quickly two years ago or so i lost the ability to use my crooks of my arms. About 2 months ago, I tried using them just for grins and it worked, i got about 2-3 shots out of each vein in each arm before they got bruised black and stopped working again. They were semi healed but not completely apparently.

Then I went in my hand, which also hasnt been used in years I used the superficial vein on the top of the hand and after only 1 injection it immediatley turned black and bruised. I just so happened to have the Hirudoid cream the next day it helped IMMENSELY on this vein as well as a vein on my thumb that was also black/bruised.

It Might be working, although not as well/quick/dramatically on my veins in the crooks of my arms but just doesnt seem to be working as fast. I contribute this to the fact that if I had the cream when the bruise first started happening that the cream may have helped it heal while it was still "fresh" and the body was working to heal itself, it seems that when used in conjunction with fresh bruised tracks that this cream works much more efficiently.

I know this is an off label use but the directions do say that in addition to vericose/spider veins that this product does help with: scars, burns surgical operations, superficial phlebitis and thrombosis (these two intrigued me as these seem to be what im suffering from)

So im going to use this stuff until i run out of it and go from there. Sorry i dont have any pics yet.
