bigmouth Posted May 31, 2017 Author Share Posted May 31, 2017 This piece is 3 weeks old. My artist advised me to put on propionate clobestasol after 3 days and that's what I did. At first it was healing normally but after week number 2, I started to notice that it is becoming itchy and the red ink started to have these little bumps. You'll see this in the picture. The other tattoo that I got was a pure black one and it did not have this kind fd reaction. These two are my first tattoos that's why I am bothered with the reaction of my skin to the red ink. Will this allergic reaction be cured by taking antihistamines cause I do not want to have a removal. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oboogie Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 It looks fine. Just take some Benadryl and see if it helps. It won't hurt anything. bongsau 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmouth Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 (edited) I took oral antihistamine for 3 days and the bumps on the red ink disappeared. The tattoo is peeling again and the skin around it developed red patches. It is still itchy and is sensitive sensitive to water and soap. Is this going wrong?
