Most vaccines are quick and painless. It is never a good idea to use an over the counter remedy to numb the area without consulting your doctor/nurse first. If you do have an adverse reaction to the vaccine, a numbing cream may prevent you from realising this and create even bigger problems.

What is a good numbing cream for tattoos and should you use one?

I found a good numbing cream for my tattooing sessions. The one I used helped. I found it to be effective and safe. Now I'm not worried about the pain in my tattoo sessions. I became confident about going at the tattoo shop. The numbing cream I contains 5% lidocaine the highest amount allowed by food and drug administration. It is a water-based numbing cream. Whatever numbing cream you might use, choose one that is medically tested.
