Bruising

This is my first post to the group. I have one tattoo on my chest.

I am currently receiving medical treatment which requires numerous blood draws on my lower arms (wrist to elbow). I have been thinking about getting tattoos to cover the present and future bruising or at least make them less obvious. The bruising is partially because my platelet count is low.

Would the bruising/low count cause a problem for the tattooer?

Ask at the tattoo shop, do you bruise everytime you get blood drawn? If so then it's highly likely that you'll bruise from your tat
