Thanks everyone.

you might want to PM Lute about it - they own a tattoo parlour
Ya I was going to do that last night but maybe she will reply to this.

You might have developed an allergy to the dyes.
More then a year later and it's on none of my other tattoos. If I was allergic it would have show up right away and on my others too.

Could it just be "the tatoo bumps"? I don't know how to explain it but some tats (one of mine does it mostly in hot weather) just kind of raise a little under certain circumstances. Does anyone else here know what I am talking about? I know of many people who this happens to
I think I know what your talking about. One of mine dose it in the winter but it doesn't hurt or anything just gets a little raised. But this is nothing like it.

This happens to a lot of people. I have three tattoos, and all were fine until I got pregnant...then WHAM! My shoulder tat started getting really nasty cysts on the inside of it. And I mean, they were huge! My ex had this happen to every tattoo he got. It was pretty nasty. Of course, he just kept getting more and more tattoos.
That sounds exactly like it! But did yours get itchy and sore?
Will it go away on it's own and how long did it take?
