I am a regular iv drug user,Meth. I had a friend hit me above the wrist and at the time it wasn t a miss it didn t hurt or swell or burn, but the next day or so... it got very painful to even use my arm or hand. been treating it with naproxen, ibu, etc. and crazy but, Claritin seemed to help.hot and cold compresses and pain wise its much better as in my hand and whole arm not being affected so much but its getting bigger and harder by the day. any remedies wo seeing an actual physician?
