is my tattoo infected?

Question

I've had this for 2 years now it's shit I know I had it done in a proper tattoo shop believe it or not

Today is has become inflamed and sore and it itches!!

Answer

Mine occasionally raise in parts and itch. If it's healed I can't see how it could be an infection? It will probably go away on its own, if you're worried talk to your artist or s doctor.

Answer

Maybe try some neosporin the anti itch one. It doesn't look horrible to me. But if it hurts mayb a doc?

Answer

My half sleeve does this too... I went to a shop I knew nothing about.. it gets itchy whenever I'm hot. Does the same happen to you?? I don't think it means it's infected though. Itd get infected during the healing process..I think it's a reaction to the ink.

Answer

It happens. Mine do that all the time for no reason. Should go away in a few hours.

Answer

I have a tattoo under my collarbone that I got a few years ago and it does that sometimes. I just lather it up in lotion and it helps. Don't use lotion with perfume it it though, it'll burn!!
