What Causes Pain And Swelling In The Arm After Injecting Methamphetamine?

Hello, my husband has been shooting meth and he has missed several times and now his arm is very painful and swollen in a couple areas. He is on day 4 without using and his whole body is hurting. I am trying to help him but worried about his arm and blood clots

Hello,

I suggest you give him hot sponges over painful areas, and advise him to take Zerodol MR twice in a day for 5 days and tell him to take rest.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Naira Jahangir, OB and GYN Specialist
