Nowadays getting a tattoo has become a fashion. Some people say that getting a tattoo can cause dangerous diseases like cancer and AIDS. Let's find out if getting a tattoo can really cause cancer and AIDS.
Nowadays, youth get tattoos to make themselves look cool. The trend of getting tattoos is increasing rapidly in India. At the same time, many such reports have been published on the Internet, in which it has been claimed that getting a tattoo on the body can cause many health related diseases. Many reports have even claimed that getting a tattoo can also cause diseases like AIDS and cancer, due to which many questions are arising in the minds of the youth. Let's know from Dr. Ruben Bhasin Pasi of CK Birla Hospital whether getting a tattoo is dangerous for health.
Keep some things in mind while getting a tattoo
Dr. Pasi clarified that although there is no risk to health from getting a tattoo, but here we have to keep some things in mind that if the needle is not used properly for tattooing or the needle is not sanitized, then the person getting the tattoo can be at risk of many diseases. Therefore, before getting a tattoo, make sure that the needle is completely sanitized. If a person who has a problem in his blood has got a tattoo and the same needle is used for you too, then there is definitely a risk of infection. Before getting a tattoo, you should make sure that no equipment is used which has already been used.
Tattoos cause infection, not cancer
At the same time, there are many such materials published on the Internet, in which it is claimed that getting a tattoo can also cause a disease like cancer. When the doctor was questioned in this regard, he said that this is not the case at all. If you use a completely fresh needle to get a tattoo, then you definitely do not need to worry at all. Cancer is a very different disease. There is a risk of infection from a tattoo and cancer is not an infection.
Can you get AIDS from getting a tattoo?
Dr. Pasi said that getting a tattoo done with a fresh needle does not cause AIDS at all. But, if someone has AIDS, and the needle used on him is used on you too, then you can definitely be at risk of AIDS. Dr. Ruben Bhasin Pasi says that young people should avoid getting a tattoo.
