cocaine is a stimulant and stimulants cause blood vessels to constrict causing less blood flow to the nose and the death of the skin and mucus membrane in your nose
Ear, nose, and throat effects: Because the majority of users sniff or snort cocaine through their nose, there are a variety of nasal and sinus diseases. Many users complain of nasal irritation, nasal crusting, recurrent nosebleeds, nasal stuffiness, facial pain caused by sinusitis, and hoarseness.
The mucous membrane of both sides of the septum (the cartilage that separates the nostrils) can be damaged by decreased blood supply, along with drying, crusting, and nose picking. This results in a perforation or hole in the septum with more crusting, foul secretions, nosebleeds, and whistling with nasal breathing, the so-called coke nose.
Because nasal obstruction is a common complaint, many users self-treat with over-the-counter nasal decongestants, such as Afrin, which adds to the problem because it also closes or narrows the blood vessels. Many users have also realized that this easily recognized and accepted form of self-medication with a nasal spray is a way to administer cocaine in public. After all, who is going to check that it is not a common nasal spray in the dispenser?
The blood vessels that absorb the drug in the lining of the nasal passage die from the toxicity of the cocaine. When they die, the surrounding tissue dies.
Snorting obrasive powder into a mucous cavity isn’t a great idea.
It scars and kills the cells. The crystals are like snorting thousands of tiny razorblades.
if you do it all the time then your done for and ya u have done it and ur freaking out and thats why your asking
Thanks for that gross mental image. Now I’m stuck with it.
I suppose that cocaine kills cells. How else?
