call your local hospital and ask someone there would be your best bet. It is safest if you ask a professional regarding this.

As a former tattoo artist, the legal age is 18 in most states. However, with parental consent, it is 16 in the state I worked in (Alabama). You will have to find out what the laws are in your state to know for sure.

You cannot ask anyone to answer that question for you.  It is your body and you are the one who will have to live with it for the rest of your life.  Getting a tattoo is a very personal question and I can tell that you are not ready for one just because you asked this question.  You will know you are ready when you see something that really strikes you.  You will know it is the one you want.  As far a body placement, I would suggest somewhere that cannot be seen unless you choose to show it.  You hopefully will be in your 80s someday and the tattoo will look crappy at that point.  You also don't want a tattoo to hold you back from a great opportunity in a career you might choose later on.

That's a good question! What a smart girl you are for considering your health first before running out and doing it. There are a lot of things to consider before getting a tattoo. People don't realize that diseases can be spread if the person giving you the tattoo doesn't use sterile technique. People have been known to get hepatitis from getting a tattoo. I think it would be a good idea to make an appointment with the doc to find out if that murmur is gone (if the hole that caused it has closed). It's a good idea for you to know that anyway because you should be getting antibiotics before getting dental treatment, right? Good luck!

You need to make sure that your tat is COMPLETELY healed before going....if it is, put the highest SPF you can find on it and bandage it with the non-stick gauze (curad works the best) and tape....Make sure it is completely covered so you don't lose the color...if it gets too hot or you can feel it burning, either put a towel over it or get out!!Good Luck!!

That depends on how your body takes to the surgery. The doctor will give you an estimate.

I am not going to give you a yes or a no on this question. Talk to your doctor before you get inked, just to make sure you are in the condition to take on the tattoo. There are issues that you need to consider before taking the plunge:\n** Healing time. Diabetes causes you to have a slower healing time and you are more prone to infection. \n** No feet or leg tatts. Simply because of diabetes you are at risk for feet issues so don't even think about having anything done that could increase your changes even more. \n\nOther than that, just talk it over with your doctor first. Getting a tattoo may not seem like a medical issue, but when you are diabetic it probably should be. \n\nGood luck and best wishes...

if my spouse asked me to get a tatoo then i would because we have been together or more than ten years, if i have a boyfriend that i have been with for a couple of months no i wouldnt. you cant get a tatoo if you have been with this person if have been with this person for only a couple of years. it takes years to know a person.so why would you want to make a big mistake if yo only have known this person for a lil while.

I have pretty sensitive skin and i have 2 tattoos. It may just take longer to heal than most.  Make sure you take good care of it and follow the artists instructions to the letter.

Not a good idea at all.Hardly any tattooist will agree to do it.\nKeloids look thicker than normal skin but are actually much thinner.They are composed of fibrous scar tissue and will not take the tattoo dye,since this usually requires an intact dermis (lower skin layer).\nKeloids skin cannot tolerate tattooing;and can only be worsened by the needle's penetration.You would end up with a larger keloid than before.\nUse a stick -on tattoo instead or if you really want the permanent one,do it on normal skin instead.\nGood luck!

since your answer to the question about tattoos was so asinine.Careful you could get hepatitis. What a moronic answer it shows how little you know about the safe and sterile practices that have been implemented. sorry you are so closed minded and uninformed.

my hubby had surgery twice ( elbow & wrist ) and both times it was an outpatient procedure but he was completely asleep. you will have mild pain for a few weeks and will probably be completely better in about six weeks. in the meanwhile of the healing process depending on if its the hand you use most you will require lost of help, from eating to daily normal activities

It can take as long as 9 to 12 months. Be sure not to use rubbing alcohol on it, that will only dry out the skin and make the healing take longer. Keep in clean. Your piercer can recommend the proper soap to use.

The epidural goes directly into your spinal cord. You can get a tattoo anywhere in your back....go for it.
