I have a lot of bumps on my chest, boobs, stomach and back… Pretty much JUST on my torso. They’re not itchy or whiteheads or anything. I’m not a very hairy person, I have VERY VERY fine hair on my arms and legs.

The picture doesn’t show all of the bumps since most of them can be felt but not really seen.

I’m just wondering if the bumps will complicate getting a tattoos on my torso.

Thanks,

Tattooing over irritated and broken skin isn’t a great idea and you’ll find many artists wouldn’t be interested in tattooing it.
Check with your doctor to find out exactly what the condition is and if tattooing over it will affect the rash itself or put the tattoo at risk of becoming infected.

If the rash seems to clear up from time to time, try treating it dilligently until it subsides and then get tattooed.

  1. The thing is, it’s not a rash… It’s just bumps that kinda look like ingrown hairs minus the irritation and redness.

  2. A “rash” is an eruption on the skin or varying degrees.
    I’d still suggest you talk to your doctor about it first.

  3. if the bumps are what I think they are, it is not a rash however it is hair follicles that never developed. I have them also the trick is to exfoliate the skin. I would still check with the Doctor.€€

  4. the bumps may be something called Keratosis Pilaris. If it is it can be tattooed over but sometimes can effect the tattoo. Do check with your doctor as others had said.
