Bumps on the tattoo

1 message · last activity 3/19/2010

Let yours tattoo breath! Don't cover it up all the time especially when you have bumps or the tattoo is raised. And stop using different kinds of cream. After shower don't put lotions on yours tattoos. Don't itch those bumps because it wil make it more itchy and more inflammed. don't pick on the bumps these bumps are not pimple. If you like work out or go to the gym, wash the tatoo with mild soap and water and keep it dry and clean after the work out. Don't put any creams or lotions. The bumps may be permanent but it will be smaller if you follow the above. It is an allergy reactions to the colour sadly and don't get any dark coloured tattoo if you have a sensitive skin.
