I have my tongue pierced and I pretty much had the same problem you did!! It is called your tongue web. I could still stick my tongue out though. Either they will pierce it up towards the tip more, or they will pierce it so that it goes right through the end of the web, which is what they did to me. I am not going to lie, my tongue web was definitely sore for a few days after, but that was the only part that hurt and it went away relatively quickly. It is like the tip of your tongue web moves back so there is room for the barbell. I have had my tongue pierced for 4 years and I love it!! I would do it again in a heartbeat. Let these people call you crazy for wanting to get it done, but it is personal preference, just like tattoos. If you want to get it done then do it!! It can always come out, and the hole will close, which is why I think piercings are smarter than tattoos. I did not even feel the needle go through because its so sharp, and it was swollen a little bit, but I ate regular food right away. Trust me it is easier. When you eat mush, you have to use your tongue to move it to the back of your mouth, making it more sore. At least when you eat regular foods you can break it off and stick it in your back teeth and chew. It swelled only for a few hours, and I was fine to go to work that day after getting it done. I have no problems with my speech, and had no problems. I keep the extra long one that they pierced me with in my mouth because I like to play with it so much. I have never had to take it out when I went to the dentist and I have had 3 teeth extracted, my teeth cleaned, and I have had x-rays. If you get it done, just make sure you rinse with the mouthwash they recommend, and they should sell it right there where you get it done! Your mouth heals fast, so it is only sore for a few days, but it never HURTS. Good luck, if you get it done, I hope you enjoy it!!

that's just nasty.

I strongly suggest you do not do that. When you put a hole in the tongue, it creates an interference field, just like tatoos and any other scars of injuries. These sites reflex to other parts of the body generating weak organs and places where disease can get a hold on the body. The ancients were very aware of this and soldiers coming back from battle were always treated by physicians to clear these energy restrictions.

Chinese medicine is very aware of these issues and it has been proven that this type of activity of piercing the body in many places is causing disease to happen. This is a very measurable problem and based on good scientific studies.

I would not do the piercing for this reason.

good luck to you

Well, you should think about this. A tongue ring will hurt your teeth all the time and that can make them week and sore. Also, it will leave a perminent hole in your tongue so when you take the ring out, it won't look normal.

I'm only fourteen, and I'm getting braces on soon.
I had the "skin" or muscle, above my two front teeth clipped yesterday, it's exactly like the "skin" under the tongue.

It's called a Frenectomy. I was really worried, and I went to YouTube and watched videos. DON'T do that, it terrified me.

But once you get into the dentist office, it's not all that bad. The dentist SHOULD explain everything that they'll be doing to calm you down. My dentist first came in, and put some novacane onto a lonh q-tip. She did that a couple of times. She then left the room to go get more supplies and to give me some more time to become numbed. When she came in, I was completely numb, and she gave me some more novacane but with a needle I think, or this laser way of giving me novacane.

I didn't feel any pain. It didn't hurt at all. She used a scapel and someway, just slowly scraped off that muscle. After that she cleaned up the blood that was left. and she gave me about five stiches that dissolve. I couldn't feel them at all either.

Right now, I can feel the stiches, but it doesn't hurt either. Just if I accidentally bump the front of my mouth it's a little bit sore.



Hope I helped!!
