if i have a staph infection can i still get a tattoo?

Answer 1

Get the infection cleared up before getting the tattoo. Staph can be serious. It's not worth messing around with. Better to delay the tattoo and have a good experience when you finally do get it.

Answer 2

I would not recommend it. Go to the Dr. and get that infection cured or in control. An out of control staph infection can land you in the hospital, and tattooing causes an open would. Don't make yourself susceptible. A tattoo will last a lifetime if properly cared for, so do yourself a favor and take a week to clear up that staph infection first.

Answer 3

You can't get tattoo's when you are insane! NO! If you have a staph infection, every part of your body that is invaded will become a cancerous sore! You will look like you have a rampant case of SKIN CANCER! It will pop out everywhere! Even if you just scratch yourself. Wait til the infection is gone, then get a tattoo so you can worry about more important things...like HEPATITIS! And secondly, how will it LOOK WHEN YOU ARE 50 OR 60 OR ... SUNSHINES AGE?? YIKES! lol.. s'all in fun, sunny one.

Answer 4

The staph illness might be on your arm, no longer your thigh. I extremely doubt that's whut is occurring. Your tattoo might be very darkish crimson, excessively swollen, sharp pains, seeping darker inexperienced/yellow pus or discharge, it might have an uncongenial scent and it might be scorching to contact. You have anything else occurring, however whut it's I cannot reply that. If this is a main issue then head to via Dr.
