Raised bumpy tattoo on outline

[Ironmonkey405]

So I got my tattoo on nov. 12 and about a few days ago I started noticing bumps within my tattoo as well as it becoming super raises. Any idea what’s going on? I’m hoping it’s not an allergic reaction because it’s my first tattoo, and it’s just black ink.

It’s also very very itchy and hot if that makes a difference

Hmmm, everyone heals differently but if it’s swelling and hot, I’d go to the doctor.

If it's red and hot to the touch you might have an infection - but just from that picture it looks fine and normal.

It’s not red just itchy and hot and super bumpy. Could it be how cold and dry the air is?

looks pretty normal from here. Itchy and scabby is perfectly normal.
