Blood Spots Under Tattoo Skin?
Dear friends,
I had my tattoo 2 weeks ago approx. It's not my first tattoo but it is my first with colors. After the scab peeled there are few spots in the tattoo which under the skin it seems like there are blood spots, sort of red splatter. should I be worried or will it go away with time?
I plan to get the tattoo touched up along with some other tattoos of mine on the 31'th - that is - 9 days from today, will I be able to?
I uploaded a photo of the tattoo with the spots to help describe it, here is a link:

Your answer most appreciated!
Thanks,
Gal.

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get your picture, but it sounds like your tattoo is still healing. If there is red in your tattoo, it may be that your artist didn't clean his needle properly after switching colors. If this is the case, then there really isn't anything you can do about it. The best way to care for a new tattoo, is to not do anything to it except for applying a small amount of A and D ointment. Neosporin will pull out color. And of course, no matter how tempting it is, don't peel off the little flakes of skin. By the time the 31st gets here, you should be sufficiently healed enough for a touch up. Everyone heals differently, however. I've even found that some body parts heal faster than others! Good luck with your tatts!
