- Authors
McLaughlin, Scott J. P.; Jay, Sharon M.; Matthews, Justin S.; Singleton, Neal; Omundsen, Mark S.
- Abstract
Behavioral characteristics and injection practices associated with skin and soft tissue infections among people who inject drugs: a community-based observational study. While the patient would not discuss his needle practices, we hypothesize that this could be explained by the practice of needle-licking among intravenous drug users (IVDUs).
