What Are The Solid Pores Formed After Consuming Meth?

I am a recovering iv meth user, and relapsed a few days ago. I didnt know the person I bought from and and the one thing different I noticed when I was shooting up was the burn even though I always was in a vein. About 2 days in, I developed a bunch of what I first thought were acne cysts but turned out to be a rock hard substance that had solidified in certain pores. I could not determine what these might be, by searching articles on the net. I was hoping you might be able to hypothesize on some possibilities for me.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It is possible that the hard areas are fibroid tissue.

This is scar tissue that forms at the site of trauma. It is normally firm to hard in texture.
Fibroid tissue reduces with time though it can take weeks to months in some cases.

Hope this helps
