Meth Injection Complications, Effects & Symptoms

I attempted to administer a dose of meth and at the end of it I noticed I didnt feel the effects of the drug at all. Now the following day there is slight swelling, soreness in the area, and heat from the elbow area where I administered the injection of meth. I have been using this drug this way for three years and never missed so I am unaware of the effects and complications and what the symptoms are. Can you please tell me what I might have done and how to treat this problem. thank you

Hi Dear
i think you have got thrombophlebitis. or a mild infection of the area. might have been caused by a tight tourniquet or needle being thick. Just do light massage on the area and change the site . If it worsens by the day , consult a physician.
Thanks!!!!!
