    Hey guys, I’ve been browsing this forum for awhile but I’ve never really had a chance to create an account and post till now.
    I got my first tattoo back in October 2012 and about a month ago or so I began noticing these white pimple like spots appear on my tattoo.. I don’t know what they are and I can’t seem to pop them?? Does anyone know what these are???

    Welcome to the forum!

    I’ve never seen anything like that. Perhaps a more experienced member will recognize the spots.

    Keep us posted.

    Never seen anything like that…have you gone back to your artist? I would ask them, there’s a pretty good chance it’s something they’ve seen before.

    I have, there little spots from the aftercare product your using because your skin is constantly wet, i get them also not as many as that though. You can also get spots like that from where you shaved before the tattoo was done.

    Do they hurt?

    Looks like the AIDS.

    fingers crossed its not the aids!
    I haven’t had any pain and they’re not itchy at all.. I just used Bepanthen as an aftercare as recommended by my artist, I don’t have these spots anywhere else on my body besides the tattoo 🙁
    EDIT: the tattoo also healed up really well after I got it done, this only all came up after a few months of having it 🙁

    Weird I wouldn’t sweat it to much unless they pop, itch or hurt then see your doctor and get tested for the aids

    After a little searching on the interwebz I found this article….

    http://smj.sma.org.sg/5011/5011cr3.pdf

    Supposedly the bumps are sebaceous cysts caused by skin material from the surface being driven down into deeper layers by the tattoo needle, then surrounded by white blood cells.

    Still might be best to speak with your artist or a dermatologist.

    Also could be the AIDS…. :D:D

    this tattoo is actually on my chest and it wasn’t shaved before I went and got it done as I don’t actually grow any hair on my chest haha
    I’m going to go into my local GP for an overall checkup during the week and I’ll ask them about this… I hope it isn’t permanent -,-

    Are you talking about your balls or do you have two dicks?
    I don’t usually inquire about other men’s genitalia, but if you do have two dicks photos may just be in order.

    (OOPS! I didn’t see the page two)
