  1. Hi, I got a tattoo on the back of my arm 2 and a half weeks ago. I've been extremely careful in aftercare, almost obsessively so, until.... Total brain fart 2 days ago. My daughter had a last minute swimming lesson and without even thinking I took her and spent over an hour submerged in the (probably) heavily chlorinated toddler pool. Not long after I got home I felt the tattoo become slightly itchy with red lumps appearing. I washed with tattoo wash and applied tat moisturiser diligently. The lumps seemed to fade but now 2 days later its crazy itchy and the red lumps appear more prominent, possibly more. I could chew my arm off now. The area isn't hot or anything so not sure if infected. Just some lumps and extremely itchy. Any idea how bad the chlorine messed with me and what the likely outcome is? I'm sick with myself...I travelled far and paid a lot of money for this artist and stupidly dropped the ball at the pool. Thanks
