My nephews (5 & 7 years) had tattoo's done on the beach. A few days later both their arms swelled up and the area began to weep (open wounds!!) I was afraid they would get an infection.They retuned home and both were on antibiotics. Luckily no scarring. If it had have been one of my children I would have flown home straight away! My 3 kids now reply "Allergy" to the tattoo "sellers' on the beach- they remember the sores on their cousin's arms!!!
