Keep an eye on it...Don't understand why everyone wants a tattoo..goodness sakes if God wanted ya to have one he would of put it on when you were born...My daughter got several which I was upset about and now she is sick from the ink of the tattoo's ....can't do anything to change it...always ,always check with your Doctor's about getting one and also the effects that the ink can do to you....anyone can have an allergic reaction to the ink and the needles that they use...certain people have very sensitive skin and should always be checked after they get one ..hope this helps....

ive got similar problem like u do. ive got this tattoo when i was in high school..a friend of mine did it, measures around 5X4cm on my right arm. its not a big deal, its not infected or smthg. It will heals but the little bumps will b permanent. I regret it...its bcoz my fren that did my tattoo is not a pro n use a selfmade machine.

sounds normal to me a tattoo has to scab up and heal. When the scab comes off your tattoo will remain.
But if you think it might be infected see your doctor. Sometimes the tattoo artist is not very professional and uses a dirty needle and then you may get an infection.

Does it have purple ink in the tattoo? Some people are sensitive to purple tattoo ink...especially more so if you have an allergy to SULFA drugs. I have been getting tattooed for years; and one of the tattoos I got had alot of purple in it and I experienced the same type of reaction and panicked!!! It did eventually go away and the tattoo is fine. Scared me though!!!

Go back to the tattoo artist it's normal for a tattoo to itch while it heals but I don't know anything about it being normal for little bumps to form...

My tatooes always itched when they were healing. I was told to rub polysporin on them, especially when they were itchy. Some people take longer to heal than others. The bumps are normal, your tatoo will look 'raised' for the next year or so, until your skin completely adjusts to the tatoo.

It itches because it is healing, but the bumps may be an allergic reaction to the ink. You need to get to a doctor.

My sister-in-law did that when she got her tattoo. She was allergic to the red ink. She had to get medicine from a doctor.
