On my trip to Goa last month which was meant for a complete family outing for five days, I happened to have a 'tattoo' drawn on my right arm.
Sitting on the beach, I had a lot of the 'tattoo wallas' approaching me with a catalogue of curious tattoos coloured in black.
On approaching me, rather nagging me several times, I put forward my right arm. I had a nice bright tattoo drawn. It looked some 'dracula' kind of a thing bugging me at sleep. It looked good without doubt.
The actual hit came after reaching home when the tattoo drawn in black turned red. It was followed by excessive itching. The whole area around it swelled up. Even still it is there.
I had to visit a dermatologist and be on antibiotic for a week. The doctor suggested me never to go for these kind of indulgence anywhere again. Also, if I would not have visited the doctor on time, it would have been even worst.
Also, it was a painted tattoo, not the embedded one. Hope the later one is better. So be very careful and think thrice when you are going for any kind of paints anywhere in the skin.
Cheers anyways!!
