Okay I've red one persons comment about tongue piercings. But it didn't fully help with my situation. I got my tongue done 3 days ago I'm washing on a regular basis every time I eat something I was right after with scope that is alcohol free. My entire tongue isn't swollen just a little around the barbell. It get's better as the days go on.. but today I started to get a white texxture around the ball not at the bottom but at the top. I know if it turns yellow or greenish I should get it checked out.. but like how yellow will it turn I'm just curious, cause the texture isn't Completely white it's like a creamy color? If someone could let me know if that's normal :$ and like I started to from an indent. Is that from like trying to swallow and stuff cause when I swallow it feels like its pushing down on the top of the ball. Lastly.. if someone could let me know roughly how long it took until the pain was gone and they could eat normally lmaoo cause I'm dying of hunger right now!

Thank you , awaiting your reply ;)

You shouldn't have gotten your tongue pierced. It's a DA thing to do.
You brought the pain and hunger upon yourself. Deal with it.

Well it's not a bad piercing people think it is, all depeds on the person I don't use it for those reasons.. and you don't know me so you wouldn't know.. I got it because I liked the way it looks. I did eat but not a lot for about 4 days. It's prefectly fine now I can eat whatever I want. But thanks for your honestly everyone's entitles to their opinion.

Mouths heal pretty fast, if it doesn't start to seem better remotley soon, call the place where you got it done and ask them about it .
I don't have tongue done but I know if you over wash it, that is potentially bad. The white may be puss, is it a lot?

Lol and sorry the other person's "advice" was so rude.

That's normal, often the creamy white stuff is dead lymph (dead white blood cells) that are trying to heal the piercing from what I've gathered. I'm currently going through the process of swelling for mine right now, I have many other piercings, but this will be the first time having my tongue done. I'm on my third day, and today the swelling is most certainly the worst. I have bruising going on to. Anyway, there's your answer. Have a good one xx
