    had my tongue done about a month ago i think, everything with it was perfect and back to normal within 5 days..

    i had no real problems with too much swelling and hardly any difficulty eating, its not my first piercing but is definatly the most easy one to heal and have done! i really reccomend it! :thumb:

    tongue web is a little more delicate than the tongue, but it has the same speedy healing time (initial healing - 2 weeks). as long as you're careful with it, it should be absolutely fine.

    i don't know, tbh, although i wouldn't have thought it would affect your speech as much as a regular tongue piercing, you'll probably just be talking really carefully for a while.

    if you need an excuse while looking for work and still talking quite gimpily, the 'i had a filling this morning and my face is still half numb' one works wonders :p

    yeah, thanx for that. i love BME but i looked on it a while ago and didn't find very much info on healing time etc. i just wanted to see if anyone on here had any first hand experience with it
