    I recently got a tattoo tomorrow will mark a week, it’s very small about the length of a lighter.. it isn’t red or anything but is still scabbing over and healing but it was normal feeling and as of a half hour ago it started feeling super hot….. is this normal?

    • If the tattoo has started to feel hot it may be an indication of an infection. Tattoos do often feel warm for the first few days but the heat should not increase.
      Consider visiting your doctor or seeking professional advice if it continues to feel hot.
