Infected tattoo or paranoia?

okay, so I got a my tattoo colored yesterday with a teal color, and it was kinda hamburgered, but it was all fine and well. two days later, it was swollen at the bottom and it concerned me greatly, so I washed it out with antibacterial soap and put neosporin on it, and the next day it was fine. tonight, i was cleaning it and drying off, and then i noticed that the bottom two parts of the wing (it's a dragon tattoo) and there were significant white/blueish scabbing. I just happened to touch one, and one of the scabs started to let out a thick pus that was almost the color of the tat and so did a little bit of blood. I panicked again, and used neosporin on it again, it wasn't much but it was still enough to make me worry greatly. I'm wondering, since that was the area that got hamburgered that the pus and blood were inevitable, or if I'm just being paranoid. I want this to turn out great, adn I don't want to see a doctor, but I don't want an infection either. this has never happened before, and it's only been four days and I don't know if this is normal or not

  • Hmm, this never happened to me.

    Could the blue scabbing be from the teal coloring?

    I probably wouldnt worry if it was just a single part of the tattoo, rather than the whole thing.

    But if youre concerned, you should ask your artist.

  • I bought 2 tattoos on thursday, one is smooth as all hell even as the opposite is totally exceptional doenst even seem like a brand new tattoo. Its average for them to believe smooth chiefly after an extended consultation of being within the equal function, you'll have pulled a muscle to your arm however stretching it and taking well care of your tattoo and it'll finally depart it takes time. One of my tattoos (older) used to be at the again of my thigh approximately a 10 inch tattoo and a 3 and a part hour consultation multi functional sitting, good after that I might slightly stroll. My muscular tissues have been so tight and smooth I might slightly raise my knee permit by myself take a seat down quite simply however doing a little yoga stretches for a couple of mins an afternoon relatively helped and via the moment day I used to be going for walks exceptional. Best of good fortune
