What Causes A Headache After Getting A Tattoo Done On The Arm?

A little over a day ago I got my first tattoo, it’s a small piece on my arm. I woke up this morning with a headache which I figured was Just symptomatic of having had a few drinks the night before. But after enough time I figured it wasn’t a result of a hangover anymore. Is it normal to experience headaches after receiving a tattoo, or is it just poor timing?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello welcome to the health care magic

I don't think your headache is related to tattoo.

Stress, overwork, alcohol, lack of sleep, high blood pressure are some common cause for headache

If no improvement than further work up can be done starting with blood pressure measurement

Hope your concern solved

Take care
