Q: if i have lsil with negative hpv what does it mean? also, can i get a tattoo?

: All abnormal Pap smears with LSIL (low grade squamous intraepithelial lesion) are caused by HPV. However, the standard HPV test sometimes miss the infection. You should assume you have HPV. Discuss with your doctor. That discussion also include the HPV vaccine, which you definitely should have. Good luck.
