How Many Other People Have Gotten Infections After A Tattoo?

7 Comments 01 January 2010

I have had plenty of tattoos, but for some reason my new tattoo got infected even though I cleaned it and tended to it the same as my others. Anyone else have this issue?

    Did you go the same place? If not, it could of been a dirty needle, or maybe the heat got it and the sweat from body irritated it. Who knows, but now, I haven’t haven’t got an infected yet and I have almost my whole back tattooes.

    possibly location of the tattoo or the shop that did it was not as sterile as you thought good luck if anything go get some antibiotics

    I had a tattoo get infected. The guy that did it gouged me way too deep, and it took almost 5 months to heal. The spots where he went too deep did not retain the color, so now my tat is blotchy.

    I have 27 tattoos — never an infection, never even any scabbing.

    My latest and 3rd tattoo got infected. It is on my ankle. The heat got to it. All my other tats healed fine.

    Maybe it’s the location.
    Some places are harder to maintain and more prone to infection.

    I only know of one person who got an infection with proper care, and she was a diabetic, with poor circulation to her legs. The tattoo finally healed up, but she saw a doctor and was perscribed antibiotics.
