Pentazocine (Talwin) is a synthetic opioid prescribed for moderate to severe pain; post-surgery, injuries, or chronic conditions. It alters how the brain perceives pain but carries serious risks when misused.
Injected repeatedly, it can cause severe tissue damage, necrosis, ulcers, scarring, and infections; exactly the kind of destruction seen in these images.
This isnβt rare. Itβs a hidden cost of opioid abuse that deserves far more attention. Awareness prevents tragedy.

Saw this video yesterday and I downloaded it, Pentazocine addition is not talked about enough.
