It is normal to experience some sensitivity and swelling after getting a tattoo, especially around the ankle area. Applying cold compresses or ice and taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) can help with the discomfort. However, if the redness spreads, there is increasing pain, excessive swelling, or persistent warmth that does not improve, or if you develop a fever, it is important to seek medical attention as these could be signs of an infection. It is always best to consult a doctor if you are concerned about any unusual symptoms after getting a tattoo.
