I'd be lying if I said it didnt but it is very minimal contact. It's either flip flops or shoes but I'd try to stay out of sun. - - - Updated - - - Thanks for all the replies really appreciate everyones feedack and it puts me a biy more at ease

- Allergies: Peanuts (Don't think it has an effect) - Skin sensitivies (Recently I've been getting a bit of dry patches a bit everywhere) - Well other than the foot prior I had my lip & chest done with no issues, I did my leg this week (3 days ago) so far so good fingers crossed, as for cuts sometimes they will heal perfectly fine, sometimes a bit longer than usual. - Just dry, NEVER oozed - I was wearing closed shoes 48 hours after tattoo but as soon as I started getting this reaction I stopped (8 days ago) I have taken the week off and stayed bare foot or in flip flops Dr: Said it looked like the tattoo was irritated or about to infect, she prescribed me antibiotics & cortisone cream, I have been taking the antibiotics but did not take the cortisone cream Tattoo Artist: Said it looked like a rash because the red is only where the tattoo is, told me to stay off the cream till it scabbed and gave me a tube to Tatt2 Buttr for when it scabbed, and if it became itchy to use cold water on it. As for why it was caused nobody knows!

I don't think it would be athletes foot because the "rash" is strictly where the tattoo is, I'll definitely keep you guys posted!

Thanks, Well I'm going on a couple tattoo forums maybe somebody will have an idea, and before I do any drastic measure I make sure to do my own due diligence. I figured instead of just waiting around might aswell post around maybe somebody will know.. hopefully!

Hi my name is Jake, I got my foot tattooed on Aug 13, 2014 (16 Days Ago) and my foot looks F***** up! I have went to go see a doctor, my tattoo artist, my tattoo artist boss and nobody can give me a definite answer on what they think it is. Any help or suggestion is more than appreciated!!! Description: - My foot is red in the background this started 6 days after the tattoo, the redness does go away time to time especially when I'm standing (You would think it would be the opposite) - The skin ontop of the tattoo is very scaly - It LOOKS dry & flaky but the skin is stuck and shows no sign of peeling/flaking off even with force it's really stuck! - The reason why it looks so dry is because I have ceased putting any lotion on it - I stopped putting lotion because the cream would not help it would just damp the layer of scaly skin - The lotion I was using was Aveeno Skin Relief (Worked fine when I did my chest piece) - Doctor says it looks like the tattoo is irritated or about to infect prescribed me antibiotics and I've been taking them for 4 days - Tattoo artist said it looked like a rash and I should hold of on putting cream I have absolutely no idea what to do anymore sometimes I can't even see the tattoo anymore I'm starting to freak out any help would mean the world!
