tattoo infection? 🤒😯

Question

I got this tattoo 5 days ago and it's been peeling and scanning like any tattoo should but I noticed this small little bloody scab area in the brown. It could be nothing at all, but this is my first color tattoo and I really don't want it to get messed up. Any advice will help!

Answer

Scabbing is a way of healing on tattoos. Don't pick it and keep putting cream on it and washing it everyday. If it doesn't get better at all, maybe get it checked out. :)

Answer

It doesn't look infected. My tattoos have done that, don't pick the scab off whatever you do. It will remove the color from that spot, I learned that mistake lol

Answer

It doesn't look infected, that area might have just beed roughed up a little more, or the ink could be coming out a little right there. It if doesn't get better, get it checked out.
It may heal funny right there and you may need to touch that spot up, but most artists will do a free touch up on their work soon after it heals.
