That skeleton hand holding a candle tattoo is really cool. I was thinking of getting something similar on my chest. Then when I wear a t-shirt, you'd only see the flame sticking out. Think it would be a fun subtle tattoo!

Thanks for your great tips! Appreciate it. You may not be a doctor, but you give better advice than a doctor! 🙂

She had already asked and the doctor told her it shouldn't be a problem as long as her sugar levels are stable. I was just asking out of curiosity and if anyone has experience with this because even though her blood sugar levels are kind of stable, the wounds on her legs are slower to heal..

Hi everyone, I don't know if my question belongs here because I don't know where else to ask, so I'll try. My girlfriend (28 years old) has been thinking about getting a big thigh-to-ankle tattoo for a long time. I myself have full legs tattooed and the healing was relatively smooth. The problem is that she has type 1 diabetes and any kind of rash on her feet took an extremely long time to heal. She was bitten by mosquitoes in the mountains last year and still has scars on her legs. Do you think it's a good idea to get leg tattoos with diabetes? Apparently everything heals very slowly. Is it worth persuading her not to get the tattoo? Is it even safe for her?
