Just to let anyone know, it all healed in the end. I was given a course of oral antibiotics and within a couple of weeks it was fine.
I believe all the creams I was being give was just keeping whatever the problem was alive!!! No creams and oral antibiotics and jobs a goodun. Thanks
Water from the tap was used to water down the ink for the shading areas and the studio has told me they may have had a problem with the water as they had just relocated to a brand new built unit.
As the heavily inked areas have no problem and the top half of the tattoo is fine, is it still possible im allergic to the ink?? seems strange if so but that is what the dermatoligist has told me(he actually said im only allergic to to ink they used to shade, even though its the same ink throughout the tattoo).
It has also been suggested to get some fucidin cream and use e45. Does that sound like a good idea??
Sorry to keep asking things but I have had more help in the last 4 days on this and another site than ive had in 6 months from medics!!
Any sugestions/advice would be great.
Thanks everyone that has tried to help on this site.
Thanks so much Matthew, I will make an appointment with my Doc Monday to find out Biopsy results.
Any other info/opinions from others is still very much appreciated.
A bic razor was used so im sure that was fine!!
It was definatley shaved when it was done but im not sure as to how well?
The bumps seem to have clear fluid in them although I have never popped one to find out.
After the Tattoo was done I used Bepanthen(nappy rash cream) and I think at the time I put far too much on.
4 weeks ago I had my biopsy and could not put any cream on it at all and it dried but never went, and then didnt get worse or better. I did then start getting a few pussed up spots as you can see in the photos(taken today).
Itched like crazy when the Tattoo was 1st done but after a couple of weeks no itching at all and thats still the case now. However bad it gets I have had no itching at all.
Betnovate cream is one other I was prescribed a few months ago but no real improvement!!
Thank you
