Suggest Remedy For Bumps Due To Laser Treatment For Tattoo Removal

This is a true stumper for all you Doc s, trust me you ill be intrigued by what your about to read. I am an extremely rare case. Had laser treatment for tattoo removal. I am now living in hell. Am told I am having an allergic reaction the red ink. Makes sense as these are the areas that are affected. Red Swollen Raised Painful Itchy Bumps that have now begun to break open and bleed. Oral steroids, Antihistamines, Creams, Ointments, and now direct injections of steroids directly under the skin. No relief. Am now being told that these areas will have to surgically cut out of my skin, very painful and permenant scaring..... Who s got something for me?

Hi.
As per your case history you are having allergic dermatitis.
My treatment advice is -
1. Don't squeeze the lesion as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic plus steroid cream like fusiderm-b cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days.
4. Other treatment options are oral steroid like prednisone or betamethasone taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
