I've had similar when I think the artist went a bit too hard in an area where the skin is thin. I lost ink for almost 2 weeks. And I have had red in a bunch of other places that healed super easily. So instead of allergies or infection it may be just a bit overworked. Maybe not a bad idea to put antibiotic ointment on it though if it is still open. It will need babying and possibly retouching later on.
Heavy red ink scabs that are cracking and looks wet possible allergy or infection?
