What could it mean when a tattoo on the foot swells up almost the whole foot within the first week that it is done?
This isn't that uncommon. I call it "jelly foot". Feet tend to swell more than other areas of the body when tattooed.

If it doesn't go away within a few days or becomes too uncomfortable, phone your tattooist or seek the advice of a physician.
