You wanted the piercing, So suck it up and deal with the healing process.
In a 2 weeks or so, you'll wonder why you where whining. Trust me.
I never saw this one, but I think it deserves a (belated) response.
Okay, I made this thread as a way of telling people that I had my tongue pierced, I was quite pleased with it and made a little joke about it (by asking for "pity"😉, it wasn't actually all that bad, yeah, eating soup was kinda sucky, but I like soup anyway.
I know I wanted it, I dealt with it, and a few months later swallowed the ball-bearing, so I'm going to get it done, probably next week and go through it all again! 😄
Got it done yesterday! Now if I take this out I'll have 2 scars on my tongue... 😖
Didn't have it numbed this time around and you're right, it doesn't hurt. Felt odd, actually, a tad sore now, but not as bad as last time!
I can actually eat, right away too, just a little slower... 😐
Will post a picture up later.
