A member asked:
I had stitches removed saturday the 27 from my shin&i want to get a tattoo on my arm/finger.would it be safe getting one after getting stitchesromove?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sure: I would not get a tattoo on the area that just healed but if yo want one on another body area sure its safe. Im believing the stitches were from trauma or a cut and not from a biopsy revealing malignancy because if so and you were in need of some medical attention then no hold off in ink until you are stable
