What Causes Painful Arm After Injecting Heroin In Veins?
I injected myself with heroin in a vein on the inside of my forearm. I had missed a bit of it. The pain was noticeable but not excruciating. The small welt has slowly turned into a fairly large swelling about the size of a quarter. Should I be concerned?

Well come to HCM
Of course this is great matter of concern because this could cause infection and gangrene too, you need to see the surgeon to avoid this, hope this information helps you in taking some good decision, take a good care.
