Tattoo sickness
Posted by Sue on Wednesday, 28. October 1998 at 21:48 Bali Time:
We went to Bali 6 weeks ago now for a family holiday, even though we all had a great time I am wishing we hadn't gone now. My son had a temporary henna tattoo on his arm the day before we left to come home and it has left him with some nasty symptoms. At first the tattoo itself was extremely raised and red, after many treatments it started to heal but a rash came over his body mainly on his arms and especially on his legs. $300 later he is looking OK but I'm sure it is still in his system and not knowing what it really was I would like to warn everybody DO NOT HAVE A TATTOO FROM A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY. His treatment has been intravenous Vitamin C and paw-paw cream. This treatment seems to work better than cortisone creams.
Has anyone else experienced the wrath of the tattoo.
