Hi Marie, The majority of my tattoos were done after I was diagnosed with RA, I can’t say that they had any effect on it at all. Never had any problem with infection afterwards either. I’m planning my next one soon. The only difficulty for me is sitting still and finding a position that I am comfortable in. Go for it ! 😊
I’ve had 3 done since I was diagnosed in 1996 with no issues at all
