Treating an infected tattoo

If you suspect your tattoo is infected, look for signs such as increased redness, swelling, pain, warmth, or pus. Mild infections can be treated at home by keeping the tattoo clean, applying an antibacterial ointment, and avoiding irritants.

However, if symptoms worsen or you experience fever, chills, or severe pain, seek medical attention immediately.

Prevent infections by choosing a reputable tattoo artist, ensuring proper sterilization, and closely following aftercare instructions.
