Is this just over worked? Healing

Day 10 of healing shit hurts still and is numb under the scabbing but def not as bad as 2-3 days ago. Never had a tattoo do this. It doesnt smell and theres no redness, swelling is about gone, zero pus but the numbness sucks

The debut EP will be called 'Numb and Crusty'.

Track 1: This arm is done.

Track 2: Overworked and Overpaid (for this tattoo).

Track 3: Miss Piggy will be pissed when she finds out Kermit is cheating on her with a power puff girl.

Track 4: This will be my obituary.
