So I have been an IV heroin addict for about a month now, used to sniff it before getting hooked on the rush. My problem is, there is only one vein I can shoot in which is the crook of my elbow of my left arm.
When I try to shoot in other veins, I get weird reactions in my skin for some reason. For example, I will get small to medium sized bumps that look very much like mosquito bites around each place where the needle entered. The weird thing about this, is that they appear in places where I did not even inject anything! That is to say that, if I put the needle in and then fail to register and pull the needle back out, a mosquito bite like bump will develop around the site where the needle entered despite no injection being made. Another problem I have is sometimes rashes/swelling redness and bruising and itching will appear on my arm or leg. That happens if I actually do find the vein and perform the injection. When I shoot in the crook of my left elbow, none of these things happen. I never get any strange reactions, bumps or anything of that nature (just a little brusing). But ANYWHERE else I try to inject my body seems to react badly to. Why is this? How bad is it to use the same vein every day, day in and day out? I generally have between 1 and 3 shots per day. I am really trying to find another vein as I explained, I get bad reactions or I can't find the vein or operate the needle well with my left hand since I am right handed (this makes it hard for me to use the crook of my elbow on my other arm). Anyone have any ideas or suggestions for me? I would prefer not to the destroy the one good vein I have.
