I've been having bad tattoo pain, can anyone help me figure out whats wrong?

On july 2nd i went to a graduation party. The tattoo was covered most of the time. Then I got in my swimsuit and put sunblock on the tattoo. I waited about 10 minutes before i got in the pool. Then after i got out the tattoo hurt. By the time i got home my shoulder felt like someone punched it. It felt fine for a few days after. Then yesterday i just bumped it on a towel rack and it hurts so bad today. I got the tattoo 2 years ago but it is still kinda raised. Its on my right side at the top of my back on my shoulder.

It is really bothering me. If anyone knows why my tattoo might be hurting me, please let me know. Any help you can give is appreciated. thx.

    Possibly an allergic reaction to something in the ink. Does it have red in the tattoo?? Red is most common for allergys in ink although can be any. Was it good quality ink they used also?? Allergys can come up years later. It could be something else call the person who did it professionals should have a pretty good idea whats going on.
