try and get some 'tattoo goo' it really helps. soon it will start itching, whatever u do, do NOT scratch it.youll mess up the healing process. also put some ice in a bag and apply for a little bit. i dont get why its feeling like a sunburn tho..

You just have to bare it...you have to remember this is an open wound...imagine someone dragging a needle over your body about 200 times,well that is basically what you have just had done...don't use creams other than those recommended by your tattooist...the pain will subside as long as you have kept it clean...keep it very clean...soap and water three times a day...try not to scratch it when it starts healing...you could lift the ink out with any part of the scabbing...

I know how sore it can be when you get a tattoo but the best thing is too keep it mousturised ie. vasiline, sudo cream baby oil etc. also you should wash it every night with warm soapy water it will work wonders.

It really shouldn't be HURTING you. It will be a little sore but that's it. Where did you get it at? When I got my calf done, my leg hurt when I stood up but the rest of mine never actually hurt.

Keep it out of the sun, clean, & don't pick it or let it dry up (I've been using Lubriderm)

use vasoline to cover it... that ink fix stuff sucks. a thin layer of vasoline... and it's gonna hurt a little... toughen up.
