Tongue Piercings.

Former Member

I've had mine for about 2 years now and yesterday I noticed it was slightly sore. I took it out and it just felt inflammed slightly so I put it back in. I woke up this morning and its slightly more inflammed - eating my breakfast is hurting. I dont think its the bar coz I've had this one for a few months.

Am I to be worried that my tongue is gonna fall off d'ya think?

you've probably caught it on something and torn the hole ever so slightly.

either that or something you've eated has managed to get down the hole and scratch the inside.

just treat it as you did when you first had it pierced for a few days and see if it goes down.

with such an established piercing, it's unlikely to be anything too dramatic.

You could've either, as kaffrin said, damaged the hole, or maybe something has become stuck in the hole, and irritated it. Or you may have caught something like flu, cold, etc, which is making parts of your body sensitive.
