Hi Guys,I’m new here but here is my story.I got a tattoo done 6 months ago and as she was doing it it was really painful, she was tugging and pulling my arm and it became infected straight away! the next day i went to the doctors and they said i had cellulitis….very painful and scary!Luckly i had antibiotics and it cleared up. But now 6 months on this tattoo is still causing me pain. i do suffer from bad circulation,I am worried it has further damaged the circulation in my arm. Do you think this is possible? and also I’m worried i have nerve damage too. also whats quite annoying is i also think i have a blow out! any advise please?
Here is how the tattoo looks now.
This is how it looked the very next day after i had it done. It was extremely painful and i found the tattooist was quite rough with my arm, to the point the tugging and pulling was causing me more pain than having the tattoo done itself!
Any advice would be extremely helpful. The doctor suspects the continued pain in my arm may be nerve damage? but she's not sure and has referred me to see a specialist, that will see me in a months time.
