Unidentified strawberry blonde SW
[QUOTE=Muffinlvr11]Have not partaken of the goods recently, mostly due to lack of available talent and time, and also funds. But I did some window shopping today and took a couple pics to see if their was any info on these ladies. Found both this morning along McM. The black girl was near MLK, and the white girl was crossing McMill. Any info is appreciated.[/QUOTE]Unless my eyes deceive me, the strawberry blonde SW is named Kim. She's good. Intelligence = 8. Appearance = 5. Skills = 8. Take the plunge.
But safely, of course.
Someone Posted About What To Look For ????
Someone wrote a post detailing what to look for on any SW and what drugs cause the conditions. I tried to find the post but I can't find it.
That is needed to know what to look for on any person you are dealing with.
I am seeing a lot of Heroin users who don't shoot it but snort it. I am not big on knowing everything I should about what to look for on drugs users and the visible problem caused on their bodies.
Someone out there is knowledgeable so please repost the information, or post new facts as they are. Please no folklore, we are asking for medical facts, and researched information.
I am seeing a lot of SW's with bumps all over there face, legs, behind, and arms. I know it is from crack or heroin use or both. Most of the girls are using both.
Waiting for your posts.
Drug Addict Skin Conditions
I am a long time lurker, my first report. May take the dive again sometime, used to be a regular of the strip clubs and streets. Here is some information you may find helpful, best information I have seen. Cocaine is a potent vasoconstrictor and can produce tissue ischemia, especially if extravasated into the subcutaneous tissue. It does not regularly form tracks, but cutaneous fibrotic scars on the extremities resulting from intradermal injection have been reported. (1) Patients use cocaine most commonly by intranasal inhalation, smoking (eg, "crack cocaine"), or intravenous injection.
The abuse of drugs via an intranasal route is an increasingly prevalent pattern of behavior. Snorting cocaine causes erythema and erosion of the nasal turbinates, nasopharynx, and eventual perforation of the nasal septum or even the palate. (2) Tissue necrosis is caused by vasoconstriction with resulting ischemia and occasionally infection. Chronic rhinitis, epistaxis, osteolytic sinusitis, gingival retraction, and bruxism are other complications. In those who snort cocaine, the intranasal septum or paranasal sinuses can become infected, leading at times to osteomyelitis. (3) Inhalation of cocaine can cause skin and even muscle infarction.
Pseudovasculitis with aggressive nasal destruction, as well as oropharyngeal and cutaneous ulcers may be misdiagnosed as Wegener's granulomatosis in cocaine addicts, especially because perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody results may be falsely positive. The differential of nasal destructive lesions may also include the lethal midline granuloma type of T-cell lymphoma.
Extensive necrosis of the nose and upper lip accompanied by a necrotizing infection of the subcutaneous soft tissue of the cheeks, forehead, and temporal region have been caused by forced intranasal impaction of crack cocaine. (4) Necrotizing cellulitis, or Fournier's gangrene, of the scrotum and penis has been reported in an addict who accidentally injected cocaine into the femoral artery instead of the vein. (5)
Halitosis and frequent lip smacking are signs of cocaine abuse. Cuts from chipped glass pipes and thermal burns may be present on the lips of some crack cocaine users. Singeing of the eyelashes and eyebrows, resulting in madarosis, may be caused by rising hot vapors during smoking of crack cocaine. (6) Individuals who use crack may also develop linear, circular, or oval blackened hyperkeratotic lesions on the hands caused by the heat of a glass pipe. The areas affected are the thenar eminences of the thumbs and the palms of the dominant hand. (7) More severe thermal burns may be incurred on the hands while lighting a crack-cocaine pipe with a butane lighter directed downward onto the pipe.
Prolonged use of cocaine may lead to the development of pruritus leading to formication, a tactile hallucination during which the individual senses that insects are crawling on or under the skin. These can be severe and are often associated with psychosis. (8) Cocaine use has also been implicated in causing or unmasking scleroderma, (8) both in a local and systemic manner.
Heroin
Heroin and other opiates may be injected, taken orally, or smoked. Because of heroin's strong potential for dependency, many addicts end up injecting the drug, which provides the most rapid onset. The specific sign of drug abuse by injection is the presence of skin tracks. Initially after injection, punctures, eccymoses, and crusted lesions trail along the length of a vein. With repeated injection of irritating drugs and adulterants, veins become inflamed and scarred. Due to their easy access, the veins of the hands and arms are initially used for injection by most novice addicts. However, to avoid the presence of incriminating tracks marks, some addicts prefer injections on the legs and feet. When easily accessed veins become scarred, drugs are injected into the vessels of the neck, abdomen, axillae, groin, sublingual area, genitals, hemorrhoids, and any visible or palpable vein or artery. Subcutaneous and intradermal injections, whether deliberate or accidental, can cause irregular, round, leukodermic, atrophic "skin popping" scars. In some cases, indurated, linear, hypertrophic, or keloidal scars form along areas of previous inflammation.
The use of adulterants in injectable heroin predisposes users to Clostridium infection. (5) Botulism due to Clostridium botulinum type A occurs almost exclusively in drug addicts. The spores of C botulinum are not destroyed by heating contaminated heroin and are subsequently inoculated into subcutaneous tissue, where the spores germinate and produce toxins. Several cases have been reported from California and other western states during the past decade. (9) Infection from this Clostridium can lead to systemic botulism, including transient paralysis of the diaphragm and ventilator-dependence for several months. Botulism is associated with parenteral injection, especially skin popping of black tar heroin, a type that gets its name from the color of impurities and adulterants during its manufacture. This form of heroin is highly hygroscopic and has a high water content that supports the growth of microorganisms. There is pain, tenderness, and swelling, but in the early stages, a cellulitis or abscess may not be prominent. Other Clostridia such as C tetani cause outbreaks of tetanus and C sordellii has been associated with outbreaks of necrotizing fasciitis.

While the information you post is interesting and pertinent, to post it off from another site without credit
([url]http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0PDG/is_3_7/ai_n25152951/[/url])
is bad form, even on a site of mongers and their hobby. "This is the best information I have seen..." is not giving credit. We prefer your personal experience. If you quote from elsewhere, you should condense to to its salient points for your post, AND give credit...
As your first post, you'll probably get away with the violation. But in the future, avoid the LONG length and obvious technical detail (even tho some is erroneous). It was a dead give away.
