This year we once more went to our regular tattooist and my son had a skull with flames on his inside arm. He did mention not long afterwards that his arm was a little sore. Within two days it had scabbed in places and we made sure he did not pick at them. Once all the scabs and the last of the tattoo had worn off, a red mark of his tattoo remained. A visit to the chemist on our return, who advised that he had an allergic reaction to the inks used. DermaAid was prescribed and I am happy to report that the red mark on his arm has gone. That will be the last tattoo he ever gets!!!!!!.
