    Hi and thanks for taking the time to read this :).

    I have a tattoo on my arm now close to two years now and I keep getting these little spot like lumps appearing under it, ever since I got it done and recently there becoming more frequent, anyone any ide what could be causing this? Or what they are? I dont think its anything to serious now but am curious as to what could be the cause, done a google search and couldnt really come up with anything.

    I also have a number of tattoos and the rest I dont get anything like it appearing.

    Initial guess would be an allergic reaction (not necessarily to the ink/tattoo, could be clothing/food/dust/etc).

    Get yourself to a GP if you're worried about them though.

    Yeh I was thinking it might have something to do with the ink that was used maybe, because if it was an allergic reaction to clothing/food/ dust etc id assume I wouldnt just get it in the one specific area rather all over, its part of a half sleeve im getting done first session was done in one studio and second and another one more recently and theyve both been joined up.

    On the second part its been grand so far, its a bit of a puzzler.
