| you're dragon is tired of being trapped on your forearm, hence it is trying to fly through your skin. |

has it been done by a pro ?
my first tattoo was done by a shitty apprentice and it's swollen almost all the time, a little more when I take the sun...

he probably did something wrong. like going too deep or whatever. If it's nor painful, you should be alright. If it starts to hurt and shit, then maybe you are allergic to something, but why would it pop up 6 months later ?

| To the OP I have the same issue going on with mine right now. Except it took two years to start itching and kinda raise up in the skin. Plus I have had some of the ink actually come out through the skin. |
