I got a tattooed ankle bracelet two days ago...I accidently rubbed it...?

I got an ankle bracelet tattoo that is now three days old for an example it looks like Nichole Richie's ankle tatt but instead of a the charm i have two one dangling on the inside of my ankle and the other dangles all the way just above my big toe and second toe. The artist told me to leave on the bandage for 45 minutes, wash it with antibacterial, and put the lotion on it. well for the record this is my second tattoo and i recently purchased tattoo goo for the first one. Both are colorful (very colorful) so on my first tattoo ( which is across my back) i made sure to apply the goo every 3 hours during the day and before i went to bed. the first tattoo peeled and heeled perfectly fine in less than 2 weeks i hear people say colored tatts fade quicker so to those who are looking for information on how to prevent it, i still apply tattoo goo and Aveeno sunblock together once daily and twice or as needed if i will be in the sun and my colors are still looking as if i just got it and its two years old. However i am having problems with my foot tatt. i wash it twice once in the morning and once before i go to bed. i have heard of putting cling wrap on or socks when you go to bed or when wearing sneakers to avoid rubbing at the scabs but the tatt artist tells me i am not allowed to wear socks or any tight sandals or shoes on it for the first three weeks. It also started to scab up and the bracelet part is already peeling some...but yesterday i went outside with my sister and she "accidentally" rubbed her sneaker on the inside of my ankle and it started to hurt so i immediately washed it off and applied new goo though it seems fine and the pain and swelling went away after i got the tattoo so i know its not an infection but i have a yellow colored star as one of my charms and there is a extremely light brown scab but its also colored yellowish i'm afraid she has messed up my color are those kind of scabs going to peel my color off.... also i work in a dissection lab for cl and we are not allowed to wear sandals i tried the second day of my tattoo to wear crocs but they seemed to rub against the charm above my big toe and it turned red....Does anyone have any suggestions of foot wear to wear...
