Hello and welcome to e health forum.

Yes, since there has been a significant change in the skin changes during tattoo process, and currently you seem to bleed during the process, it is essential for you to get examined by a doctor, and also to undergo blood tests (complete hemogram, bleeding time and coagulation studies).

This will help in proper diagnosis and resolution of your symptoms and condition.
