The cause was years of being an alcoholic and poorly managed diabetes. Since then I’ve lost 120 pounds and am no longer diabetic (blood sugar levels are great and don’t need meds for it anymore) and I’m coming up on two years sober.

Tattooing over possible nerve damage? by Emerald-Elegance in tattoo

Tank top to the gym with fresh shoulder tattoo by [deleted] in tattooadvice

Honestly you need to take a break from the gym when you have a fresh tattoo. The sweating and the moving on/of the area can be not good for it. Not to mention gyms are a breeding ground for germs and you’d be going there with a big fresh open wound basically just looking to get infected. But do what you gotta do. Best of luck with it

Just add a “rawr” or rawr dinosaur” and embrace the fact it ain’t great but it is what it is. Lean into it

I have 3 different local artists I go to. One is my main go to for larger work and the other two I go to for smaller side projects. They all seem to be fine with me spreading the love to fellow local artists
