infected?

[yasdnil]

hi everyone,

 

sorry if this is the wrong place for this, i’m new and this was the only forum i could post in. i have quite a few tattoos and have never had a problem taking care of them, but the one i just got i think might be infected? i got it a week ago and there are some pretty thick scabs in some areas, it’s a little warm to the touch, and a little sensitive to touch. other areas were warm and had similar thick scabs have healed just fine but i’m just not sure if i need to go to the doctor’s for this or not. i’ve been washing it and putting lotion on it two-three times a day. you can see some color loss already on part of the grey scab  any advice is appreciated, thanks!

That is rough! It doesn’t look infected to me but I’d find a new tattoo artist.

Yeah, I'd have to agree. Doesn't look infected. Hope it is smoother looking healed.
