Fibro And Tattoo's
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone know if the pain to get a tattoo is worse when you have fibro. My last two tattoo's hurt more than before.

I have tattoos and I don't think they hurt! My fibro is way worse then a needle!

I think it depends on how little or much pain you can stand. And the position.

I did my own small heart tatoo in 74. Hurt like crazy! Hurt so much, I never did another. Since Fibro is related to nerve endings gone seriously wrong, I would think it would be very painful!

No way the dye can be good for anyone, much less those with extra sensitivities.

I didn't find any particularly bad pain with a tattoo. A couple of times the artist was working over nerve clusters and yes, it hurt, but the pain was really no worse than jabbing your finger with a needle, and it didn't last or linger. Fibro is way more painful in the long run.
