What is Injection?

Injection is a technique where substances are administered directly into the bloodstream or muscle using a needle. While commonly used in medical treatments to deliver medications, injections are also associated with intravenous drug use, which carries significant risks. These risks include infections, vein damage, and the spread of diseases through needle sharing.

In addiction recovery, addressing injection-related health issues is often part of treatment, along with strategies for safe and effective recovery.
