14 Creative Medical Alert Tattoos

Would you get a medical alert tattoo to save your life?

Medical alert ID bracelets can be life saving devices to help identify medical conditions, allergies, and prescribed medications in unconscious or unresponsive patients. However, not everyone wants to wear a bracelet and a tattoo can be a permanent option for those people.

We took a look through social media and found some artistic, yet legible designs that can be used as medical alerts. Take a look at the tattoos in the gallery below and let us know your thoughts on this story in the comments section.

Top alert design was mainly done by him and his sister, kept to the basics but i love it. He battled and won against LEUKEMIA! Love meeting people abd hearing their story and right now his mother is battling cancer so I wish her the best but if he cane from her I’m confident she has this fight in the bag! #FUCKCANCER #firsttattoo #cancertattoo #leukemia #leukimiasurvivor #cancersucks #cancersurvivor #medicalalert #script #scripttattoo #forearmtattoo #transplantpatient #fraservalleytattoo #inkedmen #vancity #colortattoo #transplant #tattooedgentlemen #bonemarrow #cancerribbon #cancerribbontattoo #ribbontattoo #handsomeandtattooed #chilliwacktattoos #medicalalerttattoo #medicaltattoo #cancer
