I'm not sure about vicodin but I recently went for my 7th tattoo and nearly passed out it was so sore, once the outlines were done I was defeated. I couldn't no more. When I went back for it to be finished a week later, I used a cream called Emla. Pure pleasure, I could feel the work being done but there was no pain. I applied the cream 20 minutes before time, wrapped by back in clip wrap and just let the cream absorb. I managed to sit for two hours before the effect of the cream started wearing off.
