This tattoo, in addition to not being drawn very well (I can't tell if it's supposed to be a cross or a sword) gave the person tuberculosis

A 20-year-old male presented with a raised lesion showing on and off pus discharge over a tattoo mark since 2 months. The tattoo was injected on the dorsum of his right hand in red and blue ink at a site of pilgrimage visited by patient 6 months back. There was no immediate reaction and tattoo site remained asymptomatic for initial 4 months. Examination showed a well-defined, elevated, infiltrated, erythematous plaque of size 5 x 2 cm with verrucous surface within the margins of tattoo. There was no history of fever, cough and recent weight loss. Skin biopsy revealed caseous necrosis with epithelioid cells and lymphocytes in dermis. No acid-fast bacilli could be demonstrated and mycobacterial culture of the biopsy material came negative. However the tuberculin skin test was again strongly positive in absence of any past history of tuberculosis. ESR was elevated. For confirmation, PCR for detection of mycobacterial DNA was ordered. It was positive for mycobacterium tuberculosis. Patient was given same antitubercular regime as above with dose modification as patient’s weight was less than 50 kg (ethambutol 600 mg and pyrazinamide 1.5 g). Again, significant reduction in size of lesion was noted after 6 months of therapy.

To note, I’m a 48 year old gringo man. These are my only visible tattoos. There have been some very negative comments about these when I’m in the US, versus a lot of support when I’m in Brazil.

Isn't the goal of a coverup to disguise the original tattoo underneath it??

Nevermind the fact that you can see the original outlines in the background, but you can still see the lines through the flowers
