    I'd just pop a panadol tbh but that's me playing on the safe side of it all. if it were me i wouldn't risk it

    a bump after half an hour 25 mins, forum record? It is saturday evening, most are out doing sh¡t.

    panadol dont work..gotta have codeine in it for it to work on me.. 4 nurofen plus later and no change...

    I would then say go visit your GP tomorrow and see what he/she says about it all.

    Deep heat is grand to put on your back--wont harm the tattoo at all.Ive a dodgy shoulder and use deep heat when it acts up.Hasnt affetced my tattoo yet.

    Once the tattoo is completely healed, I wouldn't see a problem with using deep heat....after 5 months I'm sure it'd be fine
