Do they hurt.. I have my tongue and industrial and ears pierced.. do they hurt really bad... how long till heald

They didn't hurt me, but like I tell everyone else it all depends on your tolerance for pain. If you have a high tolerance for pain, it shouldn't hurt. If you have a low tolerance for pain, it may hurt.

Your tongue piercing will swell and be tender for a week or two. If you get this piercing it is best to eat ice and take ibuprofen to speed up the healing process and reduce swelling and pain.

Your eyebrow piercing will swell, but not a whole lot, and it will be a little tender for a week or so. It will take this piercing approximately 4-6 weeks to heal, if all goes well.

**EDIT** - Ok sorry, its been a long day. You already have your tongue pierced, I just realized that. :p

The nose piercing did not hurt me, but I must warn you weather it hurts or not it will bring a tear to your eye. Doesn't mean you are crying, its just a natural reaction. Due to the bacteria in your nose, it is one of the more difficult piercings to heal, but if you keep it clean it should heal with no problem. If all goes well with this piercing, it should take approximately 6-12 weeks to heal.

As a general rule, you should wait 6 weeks before changing any piercings, with the exception of a few that take longer.

The healing time for your nose is 6-12 weeks, and healing time for your eyebrow is 4-6 weeks.

OUCH! Sounds painful. You can recover from a broken bone more quick, just don't add up huh?

Well let me see, I had my eyebrow peirced a year ago, it hurt for about the time it took to pierce it, depending on where you go will tell how long it takes to heal. If you have an experienced piercer it won't swell hardly at all... well unless you pick your nose or butt and touch it... or sleep on it and it gets hung on your pillow case... or a knit sweater gets hung on it when you take it off... the list goes on. I didn't ever have one problem with mine and had little to no swelling on mine but it rinsed it with sea salt water and antibacterial handsoap (unscented) scented burns... bad. Keep it clean and wash it every time you touch it with your hands for first 6 weeks... if you don't you will look like someone hit you in the eye with a hammer. Make sure the piercer does it deep enough or scar tissue will push it out the surface and not too deep or you can hit sinus nerve and have a runny nose and eyes till it heals (if you are lucky) or could damage for the rest of your life... did I mention non stop migrain headaches to the piont of suicidal thoughts. So word of thumb,Don't DO IT YOURSELF!! Get a professional and you will forget you even have it in after it heals... good luck, don't chicken out:)
