What is a skin track?
The skin track concerns visible brands that remain on the skin after several blows of injection or illegal drugs. The skin that is regularly injected can be thinner and darker than the surrounding tissue. Toxins from drug use can accumulate along the length of veins used for intravenous (IV) drug use, resulting in the formation of darkened areas. The veins may collapse for a long time for a long time. The skin path evolves when the signs of the needle are pierced closely together, causing the skin to thin and the toxins settle in the veins. Gangrena, blood clots, blood infections, embolism and traces are common when drugs are injected. Changing the place of injections help avoid creating tracks of needle and open wounds. The use of antibiotic ointment to the area can prevent infection in the development and support of faster healing time.
traces may after lengthy treatment of scars string outEdnout. Aloe vera can be used to improve the elasticity of the skin and can even improve the texture of the scarred area. Exfoliating peelings can be used once a week to drain old damaged skin and stimulate the growth of new skin cells. Extensive use of the same area for injections often leads to permanent unsightly scarring and heavy makeup can be used for masking damaged skin.
Using new syringes and needles can help prevent skin development. Older injection syringes may have dressed tips of needles, causing larger injection holes and greater skin damage. They may also have infectious infectious microorganisms that cause infection, resulting in increased skin damage during infection.
The skin mark can be surrounded by an infected area called abscess. The infection is the result of a contaminated needle or a failure of the disinfection of the area before and after injection. When the injection is ignited due to the infectious agent, the area usually becomes red, swollen and itchy.Scratching the piercing wound can spread infectious organisms to otherwise healthy skin. Any apparent signs of infection, redness, heat, pus or swelling should be reported to doctors to prevent systemic disease.
