Can anyone tell me if it is more painful to get a tattoo right above your ankle bone, or .....?

Question

at the base of the back of the neck, between the shoulder blades.

Answer 1

I think it hurts wherever you choose. I've got one above my ankle bone and one on my foot. Theres no getting away from the fact that wherever you choose it will hurt, but it's bearable.

Answer 2

Any where close to the bone hurts like an SOB. Between the shoulder blades would hurt the least. Never get one above your ankle bone. OUCH. Daughter says chest hurts the least.

Answer 3

it is more painful to get a tattoo above your ankle than at the between your shoulder blades. why? believe it or not you have less feeling in your back than any other place on your body

Answer 4

I badly sprained my ankle about 3 weeks ago. I was in a hurry going down the stairs, lost my balance and landed on a bad side of my left foot, causing my left ankle to be stretched going on the inside. The first 48 hours were excruciating and the pain was un-believable. I've never had a serious ankle injury before.

So I immediately treated it using the RICE method. The following day, the bruising and swelling were so horrible. I found out that I got a second degree sprain and immediately panicked after that. I had a football game on that week and it been looking forward to it because I've been training for rt. I had teammates that had similar injuries and it took them months to fully recover, some of them stopped playing altogether. So I kinda had a short-term depression because I can't imagine myself not being able to run and play sports anymore.

Because I was so desperate to recover again, I contacted a lot of people that I know who do sports and asked them if they had similar injuries. One friend of mine, from the boy's football team in my university, told me about H.E.M. Ankle Rehab. I got a copy 4 days after I got injured. I immediately read and followed what was instructed and felt improvement on the first day. I was able to walk a bit, but I was in pain.

A couple of days after that, the swelling and bruising were subsid-ing significantly and on the fourth day, I was walking comfortably again. Although I've had felt a bit of stiffness, I continued doing what was instructed. My sister was surprised that I have recovered this fast. I told her about this book and was shocked on how effective the procedures were. I'm just so happy that this book was shared to me and how effective it is.

Heal your ankle fully & fast?

Answer 6

In 1969, I watched my boyfriend get an American Flag about 3x4" right above his anklebone. I don't know if it was the size, details, or old-fashioned vibrating needle, but he was on all the "painkillers" available in the 60's, and I watched a grown man cry...it took at least an hour,,,if memory serves,, seemed like 10 hours. The tatoo artist said it was because it was on the bone,my boyfriend was pretty skinny....maybe a fatter leg, less pain? good luck

Answer 7

I have lots of tattoos and the first one I got was on my right ankle bone. I was so scared at first but It's all in ur head it doesn't hurt. They will let u take pain killers if ur that scared I did!

Answer 8

i have one right above my ankle bone - it wasnt that bad - i would think the one between the sgoulder blades would hurt the most

Answer 9

depends on what type of body you have...if you have a little extra padding, neither locations will hurt that badly. I have one on the outside of my right ankle, one at the base of my neck, and one on my lower back. The lower back hurt the most out of all of them.

Answer 10

This really depends on your tolerance for pain. I have one at the nape of my neck and it didn't hurt. My tatoo artist said the most sensitive place to get a tatoo is your arm pit. I said why would anyone get a tat there??? Then an 18yo kid lifted his arm to show off his new tat...
