What Are The Causes & Treatment For Tingly & Numbness In Hand?
Yes, I just injected meth into my forearm and now it seems to be swelling all the way down to my hand. Also it is feeling somewhat tingly and numb. I can't go to doctor so can you please tell me what may have caused this and wat I can do for it?? Thanks

since meth is a stimulant it can cause blood vessels to constrict... if this leaked into the tissue of your arm, it can cause infection that can get into your blood stream and possibly cause a heart valve infection.
you should seek medical attention immediately as I am not sure if you used a dirty needle, if beater I from your skin was injected into your blood stream and what else was mixed in with the meth.
