I just moved back to America. I lived in Japan for 4 years. - - - Updated - - - Thanks guys and girls. For the welcome I have been keeping it elevated. So far no change has happened it still swollen. But tomorrow I'm going to have to get up and walk on it so we shall see what happens.

I currently work in security. I wear a full suit (and tie) to work. The only time you can yell I have tattoos is if I reach up high for something and my sleeve falls a little. I realize I will never be able to wear short sleeves at this job. But once I'm done with school I'll be in social work and my teachers and others that I know tell me tattoos are very widely accepted in this field. It can even help some clients trust you a little easier knowing your tatted. Like highschool kids or families. Sent from my MB886 using Tapatalk now Free

See I got tattooed at a convention. So that tattooer is no longer here. And he didn't give me any aftercare advice. Which I didn't think I needed because of all my other tats. But the feet is a tricky thing. Thank you for the welcome! Sent from my MB886 using Tapatalk now Free

Hello all. I go by Jay and I have been getting tattoos since 2011. I know its not that long but I spent 2 years being afraid I was going to experience a huge amount of pain. As it turns out that was not the case. I have recieved tattoos in Thailand, Japan, China, and America. I just recently got my my 6th tattoo and let me tell you. Its a complete bitch. I got it a day ago and my foot is the size of Africa. At first I was worried because all my friends told me it wasn't normal for it to swell this bad. As in my toes are numb. But after looking around here I'm not as worried. However, I would like to know if I can go to sleep with socks on? I know its only the second day and my tattoo needs to breathe but when my feet are cold I don't sleep. Any help?
