If you're attempting to treat yourself at home (not recommended), simply run the injured area under warm water & gently press against it to reduce the chance of an abscess forming. If the area swells or bubbles largely, see a doctor immediately; otherwise, use a warm compress, cleanse it with alcohol, & then leave it alone.
It's important to watch the area for a few days; if an infection develops (redness, swelling, blisters, numbness, pain, etc.) see a doctor as soon as possible for an antibiotic treatment. As scary as it will be, tell nurses & doctors the truth for the reason that they cannot treat you properly if you do not tell them exactly what happened & what you injected.

Can a dog survive being shot?
This depends heavily on where exactly the dog was shot at, the range at which the dog was shot, the caliber of the bullet and the type of bullet (buckshot, hollow point, etc). In general, shots through the head, chest and abdomen are difficult to survive, although it is possible depending on what the bullet hit, or more accurately, what the bullet missed. However, shots through the legs, ears or tail are generally not life threatening unless a major artery or vein was severed. If a dog is shot, he should be taken to a veterinarian immediately for treatment.

Why does the body get sore in injection sites from using heroin?
This is most likely due to a missed shot, where the user fails to register a vein & injects into muscle. One should apply a hot wash cloth with slight pressure to the sore area & it should improve in a matter of a few days. If that isn't the case, and your veins are bruised, rotate injection sites to minimize damage. Bottom line is that an addict will occasionally miss a shot, and sticking needles into oneself is bound to cause a little soreness isn't it?

If you miss when shooting up heroin will you still get high?
I've been an addict for over five years now and from my experience when missing the vein and injecting into the to skin I believe you will get high but you wont get that initial rush your looken for. Even though you will get slightly buzzed but not "high" So if you r going to stick yourself do it right and hit the vein cause to be totally honest out of all the years I've never gotten stoned even when i shot and missed a whole half gram shot WASTED. What I've just told you isn't facts just a users opinion on what my experience was.
