Nightowl Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 New to the tattoo forum, and of course I have questions, that's why I am here. I will try to wait until I post the 10, but really I do not know much about tattoo's, which is why I came here to begin with. After I have visited a couple of pages and read some of the posts, this seems like a pretty good forum. And "LST", I'm from the "STL"!!!

Nightowl Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 I'm trying to wait to post it in the correct location. I'm still searching the forum trying to find the answer. I've come across some ideas, but nothing quite like what I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightowl Posted August 15, 2014 Author Share Posted August 15, 2014 I was just trying not to bend the rules, but my tattoo began itching and it has been over a year and a half since I got it. I only have two tattoos, so just a newbie. Well, I was scratching it, not paying too much attention. Then, it felt like I pulled something out of it. Sure enough, it was something solid and the same color as the tattoo. It is black. It almost felt like plastic. I tried to smash it between my fingernails and it would not compress. It actually shot out from between my fingernails and I lost it. Tattoo still itches, not near as bad, but I have stopped scratching it! Any ideas on what that was or could have been?

exume Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Sometimes, even years later, tattoos will react to weather and other factors, raising up and getting itchy. I couldn't really tell you what it was you scratched off but you could maybe take some antihistamines to help deal with the itch. - - - Updated - - - Sometimes, even years later, tattoos will react to weather and other factors, raising up and getting itchy.

Fala Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 What does the tattoo look like now? Is it hard or tough under the areas that are really itchy comparative to nearby non-tattooed areas? Do you scar easily or have an overly reactive immune system? misterJ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
