White Bumps On Tattoo, Light Headed, Mucus In Throat, Fatigue. Related Symptoms?

hi I have little white bumps on my tattoo on my neck . I got the tattoo around december, and it is already healed by now. However, the bumps didn t show up till about march after i already healed. They do not itch , they not not swollen they are just there. I don t know if this has anything to do with my tattoo. But recently starting at the beginning of the month i had episodes of lightheadedness , excessive mucus in my throat, feeling overheated, kind of like fatigue in a way. I have no idea whats wrong with me! the mucus part have something to do with my tonsils needed removed but i just don t know

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for query,
The swelling on your neck on tattoo is a Lymph node swelling.
When we gets any type of inflammation we gets the regional Lymph gland swelling of that region that will subside by its own when inflammation subsided or some times it gets infected.
In your case it may be due to your tattoo or may be due to your Tonsil infection & as it will not swollen it may subsided by its own or not increase more.
if its size increases or it causes pain you should consult your doctor.
Your mucus in throat may be due to your tonsil infection.
Thanks.
