I get heat rash on my hands and feet every year. I got a tattoo on my foot about a month ago, and now that the weather had gotten warmer I developed the usual heat rash. On the foot that was recently tattooed the rash is much worse and has made my tattoo scabby, it was pretty much healed before I developed the rash. Should I be worried?
Hi, Perhaps it is an allergic contact dermatitis to the tattoo pigment. I suggest you to take an oral antihistamine e.g. Tab. Cetirizine. In addition, I suggest you to apply a moderately potent topical steroid and antibiotic combination ointment e.g. Fluticasone Propionate and Mupirocin ointment, or Mometasone Furnace and Juridic Acid cream. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
