No there is no need to worry. Tattooing our body should be avoided as it can cause itching and allergic problems and sometimes serious infections. So it should be strictly avoided.
Now for your itching take tab. Levoceterizine 5mg once or twice a day preferably at bed time after food. Take it for 3days then leave it. Dont be panic nothing will happen.
