I wasn’t trying to send you into a panic; I was just responding to what you asked. 😡
Here’s an idea: Test to see if it’s an allergy by taking a first generation antihistamine. Benadryl is a good one, and cheap. Take the maximum dose according to the pill bottle. If it gets better, allergy! If not, eczema.
If it gets better, then it likely an allergy, though we can’t determine a definitive cause/effect relationship based on the one instance. If it doesn’t, it may still be an allergy. I am allergic to nickel; Benadryl won’t stop or reverse the reaction.
Hmmm lol you made me paranoid now about tattoos hehe;)
What is excising the skin ? Please don’t tell me they cut the tattoo out lol

Yes, they do. 😡 Honestly, most people just live with allergic reactions and treat the symptoms as best they can. I was simply stating that if you want/need an allergic reaction to tattoo ink to stop, your 2 options are laser and excising, though laser will send the ink into your system so there is a legitimate concern that this could worsen the problem.
Virtually all allergic responses are to color tattoos btw. The pigments used in black and gray tattoos very, very rarely cause any type of reaction. I worry a bit also tbh, but I went ahead and got a color tattoo anyway.
So I had the dermatologist appt and was prescribed Triamcinolone acetonide cream USP 0.1%. I have used it 3 times in 2 days and already the dryness is gone and the bumps seem to be going down.. he said to use it twice a day for a month and then go see him, but he couldnt tell me what the problem might be. any info?
triamcinolone acetonide is a corticosteroid that is used to treat dryness and bumps, he probably has no idea what has caused them
(doctors are just practicing medicine) ………it usually costs alot to do some testing, he is just trying to save money, he can make it go away and never know what caused it,
