Nib Tattoo
Nib Tattoo
Am I going to get ink poisoning from this?
I got a steak knife, the jagged ones and I started scratching at my skin with it to make outlines of a tattoo a band member has it says “High Five” on the palm of his hand. The scratches aren’t deep, the top layer of skin on some parts of the scratches can fold over, it’s really thin, like a piece of paper, so I turned over the tiny bit of skin and only the first layer was cut, not the second, so I was like okay, there wasn’t any blood pouring out of the skin either, and when I folded over the top layer of skin there was no ink of the second layer of skin, so hopefully I’m okay. But I really don’t wanna get ink poisoning because I’m only 14 and yes I’m stupid for doing this, but please tell me, am I going to get poisoned from this? I took the nib out of a pen and blobbed it over my hand.
Just STOP!
I don’t know what you think that you are going to accomplish, but you are flirting with some dangerous issues.
I can’t tell you if you are going to get ink poisoning or not, but it is a possibility.
You can also get MRSA:

Start taking good care of yourself, keep sanitary, don’t poke, slice, burn, or scrape your skin. Don’t try to do things that you have no knowledge. And don’t try to fix the stupid mistakes that you have already done, by doing more stupid and dangerous things!
If you have redness, swelling, if there is pus, etc. you need to be upfront with your adult parents or guardians, and say this is what I did, and I need help, and then get to a doctor.
If you have any doubt you may need antibiotics etc.
You are young, you are uninformed, you do not know what you are doing or the possible consequences. Stop everything, and put this right, by healing and taking care of yourself, and growing up.
luck~
