Applied Vitamin A And D. Have Pimples And Bumps. Help
I got a tattoo last Thursday on my left side. I applied vitamin A and D ointment, and wrapped it with plastic wrap for four days. I washed it 3 times a day, and changed the dressing often. After the fourth day I developed tiny red bumps all around the tattoo. They don t itch or hurt. Then on day five, six, and today (day seven) I keep getting more and more bumps. Some of them are white and large, like pimples . The reason I m concerned is because they aren t only on/around my tattoo but in other places, like my legs, and and my other side. Please help me figure out what s going on! Thank you!

this is allergy may be due to tatoo itself or the other things you applied
wnen you apply anything on skin it get absorbed and causes allergies at origional place and other weak points distance does not matters
you can take allegra 120 mgm daily for 3 week
apply mometasone ointment locally and effected parts
after 3 week problem is over and you can prevent it further by using not these things
