What Does Blown Vein And Numbness In Hand Indicate?

A friend of mine, 48 yr old male, alcoholic, meth user. After almost 6 yrs fully clean and sober, he has relapsed. Currently doing his best to get back on track, his left hand is numb. He does not tell me everything, but what he s told me this time, is he did a shot of meth about a week ago,(right arm) blew a vein and his left hand is now numb. I have never used meth this way, although I have used, it has been 8 years, so I am not familiar with this. Could the blown vein have to do with his numb hand?

HI
Well come to HCM
It is like wide gate open for the narcotic drugs and this may cause anything right from the vein swelling numbness, infection, all kinds of system disturbances, if some one want to come save from all this then better to stop the narcotic, if some one is too much worry about the consequences of the drug then why not to stop this, hope this information helps, take care.
