Inner Arm Swelling

15 messages · last activity 8/12/2006

Hi, I got some work done on my half sleeve yesterday - 10th August. The work I got done was on the inside of my arm and it seems to have swollen up alot more than the rest of my arm, it is a bit tender but not sore to touch....is this normal? Thanks s.
Yep perfectly normal man...the skin of the inner arm as a general rule is much thinner and much more sensitive...mainly because that are gets so little UV rays ( sunlight)....Its cool! Thanks for posting!!...TAz
yep, perfectly normal ,as a rule the inner arm is a lot more sensitive than the outer arm for most folks. Give it a few days and it should be less sensitive. And be very careful with the healing, the inner arm can be a bit harder to get to heal right if you aren't careful...Doc
Damn Taz, was ya reading my mind or what? Of course it's the truth but sometimes it's a bit eerie, ya know?...Doc
Hi guys, Thanks for the quick reply much appreciated. I thought that it mat be the case but wanted ot se sure this is my first tattoo and was a bit worried. For healing i am trying not to use the arm much and just applying Savlon, steering clear of body sprys etc in that area and keeping it clean as i can. Thanks Again S.
Doc...Are you sure I'm not yer long lost son?...After all you are a LOT older than me!...LOL!!!!
Taz, think I'll have to plead the 5th Amendment on that one but then, I ain't THAT much older than you, I just look like it (damn aging process)...Doc
TAz, do you have a multi colored spiked mohawk, or find yourself squawking uncontrollably? If so, you may just be Doc 'n his parrots' lovechild from years ago..............
Oh, and Doc, Don't fret over it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Hell, you were only 11 years old back then; nobody even thought you could get a parrot pregnant at that age!! TCE
Tce, as I stated earlier when ya firstsnitched me out about that, I really did think it was a hot redhead babe, although, thinking back, the squacking probably should have given me a clue. But, as I said, that was back in my 'juicer' days, one of many reasons I haven't had an alcoholic beverage in years. That and the fact that in the old days when I pulled an 'all nighter' it only took 1 day to recoup, last time I pulled an all nighter it took 4 days to get my shit back together and there's no way in hell my little guy would be quiet THAT long...Doc
Man, you WERE an early starter!
Damn juicehead parrot molesters!! SQUAWCK!!!!
TAz, That's a hell of a thing to say about your dad!!!
I want 49 years of child support!!!
Doc, You could always argue that he's only half child..................................and half bird!! Child support divided by chicken feed equals half the amount. TCE
