Hello everyone, I have a question to ask you all. I have a tattoo on my right wrist and I am now on day 3 of getting it done. The skin is still a little sore, occasionally itchy, and occasionally oozing yellow fluid. is this normal? If normal, can my tattoo area come in contact with water? Can I scratch when it's itchy?

Hi, you should be washing it with antibacterial or antimicrobial soap a few times a day anyway, and yes, after only 3 days it wil be sore and oozing a little, it's an injury to your skin, after washing it, gently dry it with a clean paper towel and apply a VERY light coat of something like cocoa butter or aveeno lotion,don't scratch it.
