I really don’t have an answer for you, but more of a suggestion. Have you tried talking to your artist? A good artist will not work on you if you have a health issue that may complicate things. So if you have not spoken to your artist, try that.

I assume it wouldn’t be a big deal.
But to reiterate: talk to your artist.

In my mind…the worst that could happen is he wouldn’t be able to tattoo that one spot…and would need a 45 second touch-up after your bump heals.

My artist actually did that with a friend of mine…
Had him come back in after an ingrown hair was healed and filled that dot in.

Hi

You should have not have work done over skin that is damaged, swollen, sunburned or has moles or in-growing hairs, or cysts.

The pigment will not stay in very well and you are opening up a damaged area of skin which could lead to secondary infection.

The reason is that the clogged area is filling with dead white blood cells and will likely need extracting with an incision or syringe and should only be done by your GP.

You could most likely get the rest of your tattoo done but you want to leave a clear space of at least 1cm around the area concerned.

I would suggest getting the Dr to lance it (they sometimes suggest letting them go down naturally) do not poke or pick at it because you will risk getting an infection from your mitts.

Take Care
