Well, I got my tongue pierced last year so I can tell you this from experience and personal knowledge. (i have 19 piercings)

When first pierced, its supposed to itch. And it should have been pierced with the longest bar. But after a month or 6 weeks, whenever, you can change it to a shorter bar or ring. Whichever you prefer.

There is over 20 different shapes and sizes of tongue rings, so trust me, you won't be stuck with the same one forever.

Hope I helped.

Well after its done healing you can change it out and there different sizes to fit your mouth but if you dont think they fit you should order one.

RATE AND COMMENT! {please}

When first pierced, they should have given you the longer one. If the swelling is so severe that it is being constricted by the barbell then you should certainly take it out and see a doctor. Otherwise, the swelling shouldn't last more then a week. After the healing is complete and you can replace the ring, you'll find all sorts of shapes and sizes- long and small.

She shouldv'e already pierced you with a x-tra long 14 gauge barbell because your tounge is going to swell and the long one will accomodate the swelling. Walmart and places like that don't carry the long ones just the regular sized one's for after the swelling is gone. Assuming this woman did a extreme no~no and pierced it with a regular sized one, I wouldn't go back to her but your best bet is to go to another tattoo~piercing shop and get one (there about 15 bucks) they always carry the long ones. But don't go down a size in gauge. (The lower the number the thicker the "bar" will be)
