my tongue killed me for about 2 weeks after getting it done. tongues dont like being pierced and they swell alot. i lived on milkshakes and tomato soup through a straw for 2 weeks. lost a stone in weight. i also could barely talk without wincing in pain and had a massivly overpronounced lisp. very handy when 3 days after getting it done i had to do a talk on the theraputic benefits of animals. it came out as 'le scheraputic benefitsh of animalsh. and i still cant roll my Rs
its unfortunatly incredibly normal to be in a helluva lot of pain for a couple of weeks with tongue piercings. try and take some ibuprofen to help with the swelling. it can also take up to a year to fully heal. i still get alot of pain if i drink orange juice, ive had mine done since november, which is fairly normal.
enjoy
