Hey, I have many different piercings including snakebites, angelbites, both side of my nose, septum, ears, bellybutton, and now my tongue.
I'm on my third day of getting it done, and this day has by far been the worst for swelling. I just wanted to ask how long (if you have had one,) did yours take for the swelling to go down quite a bit? I have taken advil, sucked on ice, rinsed with mouthwash, mixed with water (as instructed to do.), and been very clean about it. I also wanted to know how many people have had their tongue bruise after they had it done?

Hey,
I have got my tongue peirced and if I can remember right it didn't bruise but it was very sensitve and sore, couldn't each much atall! The swelling went down and it stopped hurting about a week after having it peirced.

The piercing doesn't really hurt it's the 48 after period that hurts I got mine done about 2 weeks ago still a little bit sore but I like it if you want to do it go for it but after the neddle is in and you have your tongue just hanging out waiting for them to put it in your going to drowl like a s.o.a.b lol but like,putting the niddle through isent bad at all and I freak out about getting shots lol

It has been very interesting to read your postings on tongue piercing, my daughter has announced she is getting it done today, 4 days prior to a huge family funeral for a fearfull nana. Apart from not being able to speak clearly until swelling goes down I wonder if she will be able to hit the high notes in church, also once piercing is done does it also deminish brain activity?? The spelling and grammar on this site is amazing. Hang loose folks.
