Definition: A medical product made for the relief of hemorrhoids - swellings of anal tissue. This product is <b>not</b> recommended for tattoo aftercare, regardless of what some friend of a friend may tell you. And if any tattooist recommends this stuff to treat a tattoo, I would strongly recommend you find another tattooist.
