Cocaine can have many side effects including allergic reactions, blood clots, and necrosis. You should seek physician help with this immediately, and know that your treatment will be wholly confidential. Always be honest with your physician, we will not report you to the police for drug use. Only if you are a potential imminent harm to yourself or others.
