tongue piercing
I'm planning on getting my tongue pierced, but I'm tongue-tied (I have a really short tongue). Do I have to get that little...thing under my tongue clipped so I can get it pierced? And what if there's no medical reason to get it clipped, can you do it just to do it? How much does it cost? And how long does it take for your tongue to heal afterwards? Sorry for so many questions! Any help at all is appreciated!

It's best to go to the place that is going to pierce your tongue so that they can look at it and tell you if you are able to get one or not. I have a tongue ring, but I don't wear it all the time because of the career I am in. I had my tongue pierced twice. The first time, it didn't hurt when they did it. I didn't even know they were done, when they were. It is best to eat some ice before hand.
It hurts afterwards because of the swelling of your tongue. It hurt for about 2 days for me. I didn't eat solid foods, until the 3rd day. It costs me 40.00 at Tattoo Charlie's. The second time I had it done, which was 3 years later, it cost 40.00 still. It closed up because I had stopped wearing it.
The second time it hurt really bad when they did it because they pierced in the same spot that it was the first time. They had to go through scarred tissue. It bled, but not bad. The first time, it bled but only a little, but more the second time. The same day I had it done, the second time, I went out to eat and ate solids, with no problem, only a little sting. It is important to keep it cleaned, they will tell you all of this when you get it done. It also only takes about 10 minutes if that and it's done.
Hope this helped, if not you can contact me through my inbox here or at sophia_pettus@yahoo.com.
