Can I prevent a tattoo flu?
It is impossible to predict because very person’s body and immune system is so different! However there is a big chance you can prevent it if you take few precautions:
- Have a full night sleep the night before
- Make sure you have a big healthy breakfast that morning that has a good combination of carbs and proteins.
- Take some paracetamol before your tattoo session (only if you are NOT allergic to it). Paracetamol helps your body to deal with an inflammation and pain too.
- Stay away from alcohol the night before. Alcohol thins your blood and increases count of leukocytes and can affect the healing of the tattoo badly.
