Applied Vitamin A And D. Have Pimples And Bumps. Help

I got a tattoo last Thursday on my left side. I applied vitamin A and D ointment, and wrapped it with plastic wrap for four days. I washed it 3 times a day, and changed the dressing often. After the fourth day I developed tiny red bumps all around the tattoo. They don t itch or hurt. Then on day five, six, and today (day seven) I keep getting more and more bumps. Some of them are white and large, like pimples . The reason I m concerned is because they aren t only on/around my tattoo but in other places, like my legs, and and my other side. Please help me figure out what s going on! Thank you!
