When u shot up meth in ur left arm an its been one day an its all red around where the need was injected what can i do to help heal it without having to go to a doctor physician??

You can't: It sounds like you have developed a cellulitis (skin infection) at the site. This is likely from less than optimal equipment or preparation of the site. Get in to be seen. This can progress to a blood infection and end your life.
