Hope I haven't answered this too late. Avoid soaking it while it heals- no swimming and if bathing try and keep it out of the water! If it gets wet (as in soaked) then the scabs will come off and you risk pulling the ink out/ giving yourself an infection. When in the shower, again try not to soak it and afterwards let it air dry. Also keep it out of the sun and once healed, don't forget the sunblock on it!
I'm slightly concerned your tattooist didn't tell you how to look after it!
