drugs on the street Scars from injecting heroin. she is out, needle still in

Heroin injected. She zoned out from rush. Needle still in. Note the scars

from bad drugs, dirty needles, infections, fungus. What you see is the

best of what she has. The worst I will not show

James, that is a very graphic image. It portrays a side of life most of us fear to tread. Your a brave man to walk there. Great exposure and composition

Thank you very much. I have tread there and have walked away now. It is a very disturbing world. I have my photographs, which is what I wanted. Yet, it has left me quite shaken to see what I have seen there. I just saw too much, more than what they should have allowed me to see. As far as photographs go this one I am partial too also. It says much more than what you visibly see.

I have the same scars unfortunately on my arms from my past and have been trying to treat them for 7 yrs. They have gotten better but some won't heal, & some have a layer of dead skin but will not go away. I have been to several doctors. I am either prescribed a steroid type ointment or cream. They do not work. They are just like the above picture. I do not know what these scars are or what type of skin condition I have. Thank you for sharing your picture.  Can anyone please help me on how to treat these or is there a name of this? Any information or education would be greatly appreciated. My self esteem is gone. I hate having to wear long sleeves in the summer. Embarrassing to say the least. Again thanks to all for any help..
