i have followed all of the above and still nothing, i have been to the doctors and they have given me some cream with a steriod in it which sort of helped but didn't, by that i mean it went down slightly but is still there.

So . . . . . . the tattoo healed then came up with the following.
Red spotted rash ( this has now died down) but . . . . .

Now the on the tribal of the tattoo there are spots on it which is making the tattoo look c**p, red raised bumps that can be seen through the tattoo. also the tattoo keeps scabbing over and peeling in the places where the spots are, this keeps happening.

Can anyone help at all anymore, i went to the tattiost before and they said to keep moisturising it which i have been doin but still no effect. Should i just get them to go over it to see if it will cure the rash.

Hiya mate, i ended up going to the doctors about it and had steriod creams and another cream which didn't work so went back the tattoo shop, they looked at it and said it looks really dry and said that they want to go over it so i said may aswel, since then the has been no rash and it has healed perfectly. After it rehealed i showed them and they said they want to go over it again as some of the patched where there was heavy scabbing the first time look a little patchy.

This hasn't stopped me getting more tattoos as i got another week and a half ago so i currently have a really itchy arm, this one didnt scab over but just had peeling skin can anyone tell me why some scab but some don't, and should the tattoo start itching after a week and carry on for a few days.

Also i am using bepanthem on the new tattoo and it has healed perfectly so i doubt i had an allergic reaction to the cream last time and it was obviously a problem with the tattoo.

On sunday it will be two weeks since i have had it i was just wandering how long i should leave it before i go swimming.

Cheers and sorry about the questions lol.
