Hi, everyone! I'm Amanda. I am currently the proud owner of only one simple tattoo on my left ribcage, and I'm considering another on my right inner bicep. Because I'm going into the world of engineering and/or psychology and/or law enforcement and my parents do not exactly approve of tattoos (and they're helping me get through college), my goal is to keep my tattoos easily hide-able while still remaining expressive and artistic. I'm thinking of getting my new tattoo of a skyline of Baltimore at night with subtle flames in the background as though the city were burning. I joined this forum hoping to get some different opinions and advice on my idea before I go ahead and go through with it.

That's about all, I think! Have a good night. (:

Welcome. You are interested in different ideas about the Baltimore idea? Why do you want it on fire? I guess that's what it comes down to - if you like the idea, it shouldn't matter what anyone else thinks. On the other hand, if there is something that you want to represent, and you wonder if a burning skyline would represent it, you could ask for feedback on if there are other ways to represent what you are thinking. So what are you thinking of representing? :-)

I like the burning skyline because it's a specific reference to a couple songs that mean a lot to me, but mostly because of the idea that the past is the past, and whether it's something you love or not. I would, however, like to somehow make it obvious that I do not want to burn the city, because it is something I cherish, if that makes sense. So I suppose that's more what I'm looking for thoughts on. (:

      big Problem after tattooing.

      By Hogrider · Posted

      First let me say I've never seen exactly that related to tattoos. Second, I am NOT a doctor, so take any advice with a grain of salt and follow it at your own risk. I do have something like that which appears on my face from time to time. After multiple visits to the dermatologist, which didn't fix it, I finally came up with my own treatment. Whenever it flairs up, I just wipe the area down with plain rubbing alcohol three or four times a day to keep it dry. That usually works within a couple of days. Again, I'm not a doctor, but I don't think it would hurt anything for you to try that. Good Luck.

      big Problem after tattooing.

      By zomno · Posted

      Hey, I have a serious problem! I got a tattoo in Manila 4 weeks ago. The artist is very well known and is one of the most renowed. 2 day after tattooing, small pimples began to form on my thight an many at the tattoo. 3 days later i had fever at night (just at night). After that, the pimpels began to spread very quickly all over the body. (back stomach etc..) I have now been to 3 doctors and everyone is at a loss. The blood work is fine and with no anomalies. Antibiotic ointment and cortisone ointment did not help. Xyzall allergy tablets did not help either. When i took cortisone tablets, 90% of the pimpels disappeared on the tattoo, but not on the other parts of the body. Now that I´am no longer taking cortisone, the pimpels on the tattoo are starting to grow back again very quick. On the other parts of the skin , the pimpels are sometimes lighter and sometimes stronger. This can be change hourly. They don´t hurt and hardy lever itch. Of course I´am afraid of a tattoo allergie. Has anyone already had this problem ? Does anyone know what that could be ? I add photos: 1) Photo directly after tattooing. 2) 2 Photos with the pimpels after a week 3) After 3 weeks while taking cortisone. 4) Photo of the body on the left.
