Since I was born, I was told that i have hereditary uricarial rash, its not severe though. I get rashs when its cold or hot, exposed is dust, something rubbing in my skin, etc. And I was planning to get a tattoo since graduating from college. I was wondering if anyone is in a similar situation who has tattoos could give me some advice on what I should do.

    I have delayed pressure urticaria and normally flare up from having blood tests and was contemplating having my first tattoo at the ripe old age of 55yrs (bucket list). I waited till I wasn't so problematic and done it and had no problems. Personally I think you'd be alright. I mentioned my type of urticaria that is caused by any pressure friction or pressing and I was ok so I'm sure with your type would be fine.
