A holidaymaker was left in agony after suffering a severe allergic reaction to her henna sleeve tattoo which left her feeling like she was 'burning alive'.
Alexandra Hallman, from Santa Barbara, US, treated herself on her trip to Zanzibar earlier this year.
But the 23-year-old suffered a nasty reaction to the paint, which turned into chemical burns that were so 'excruciating' she was bedbound for nearly three weeks and had to tie her hands together to stop herself scratching.
