A member asked:
Can you tell me how to get a tattoo while taking heparin injections?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why: Why are you on Heparin injections normally its to prevent thrombosis in the legs. The Heparin will make coagulation more difficult and you will likely have increased bleeding with your tattoo placement. I would wait until you are stable and off Heparin then get your tattoo if you desire
