    My tattoo is almost 2 years old and still has not healed. Why?
    I had a tattoo colored in on my lower back. I told her she was going too deep and staying in one place too long. Now almost 2 years later it still has not healed right. Always has a small scab or really dry spot.What health risk am I experiencing? What can I do. I have severe pain in my lower vertibre and do not know if the tattoo could cause this.

    Suggest you see your doctor as soon as possible. Six months after getting the tattoo, and not healed should have been an indication at that time that something was wrong. Why have you waited two years?

    Two years a gun shoot or knife would deep inside would be healed, so yes there is something seriously wrong
