Tongue piercing pain?

Ouch..It hurts, its been 2 days, I cant eat anything, hardley even soup, it has to be broth, and under my tongue there is white goo and a small bubble, and my teeth hurt badly, will my piercing be okay? I clean it alot with yellow antiseptic mouthwash thatb they gave me, and sea salt rinses, etc...Is this normal? I feel like throwing up sometimes cuz i feel sick, but it hurts to gag because of this ring..

Answer:
How did you think piercing your tongue WOULDN'T hurt?? Guess what, your mouth is full of bacteria, so now you have an infection. Your teeth are already hurting...news flash...dental damage is common with tongue piercings.

While you are feeling bad, watch the movie "Rat Race," then seriously consider having that thing taken out!

But if you ABSOLUTELY refuse to remove it, try mixing hydrogen peroxide, antiseptic mouthwash, and salt water in equal proportions. Swish and spit every few hours.
hmm.. were abouts is the white goo and small bubble? is it were ur peircing is?
wen i got my tongue pierced it swelled for 4days.. im sure the sickness will go away because of what you've been eating.. but ur peircing may be infected.. try waiting a week for the swelling to go down.. and if the white goo and bubble is still there.. then you should go see a doctor about it
Your tongue is a tough one I had my tongue pierced and it hurt. I would suggest to keep using the antiseptic and to rinse after you eat so that no food gets stuck in your new tongue piercing. I am not sure how often you clean it with antiseptic but rinsing too much could be a bad thing. I would also take some advil because it will help with the swelling and pain. You are most likely getting sick from not eating. Try to eat some crackers, pudding, fruit or soft foods but slowly. Your tongue should be better by another 2 days if not I would go to a doctor or take the ring out. I hope this helps and Good luck!
It may just be normal, but don't play around with it. A friend of mine had his for a week and still had so much pain, when he checked it, turns out the space that they could pierce because of that little connector deal underneath his tongue was too short and when they twisted on the ball it caught that connector tissue and it was twisted up in there, he had to have it removed permanently.
You only get one tongue, so get it checked by a dr!
