I get a tattoo more or less a month ago and it appears to be infected. What can I do to restore to health the skin?
The skin has red forming around the the skin that looks infected. The skin was torn and scratched. The skin is torn down to the tissue layer of the skin. What can I do to backing the skin heal?
Answers:
Try dabbing some diluted tea tree oil or other meek antiseptic on it twice a day, if it doesn't look any better after a couple of days go to the doctor.
You may have an allergy to the ink, but I doubt it.
If it is infected, sort sure you put some neosporin on it and cover it as best you can. I have 2nd degree burns which is the same concept, skin infection from trauma and I am self advised as I scab up and skin is exposed to layer neosporin on the wounds and cover them, so I am passing the direction on to you.
Good Luck.
