I have a problem. I just got my tongue pierced Sunday night. The pain from the piercing itself is fine, yes it hurts but I can handle that. My problem is the surface of my tongue in front of the barbell. The bumps on my tongue are white and inflamed and hurt like hell. I'm wondering if it's a side effect of the mouthwash, or if the piercing itself is causing this. I'm about ready to just take it out, because this fucking sucks. I have a high pain tolerance but my tongue burns so badly.
Any advice? Is this normal, or should I be concerned, and will it go away or will I have to stick it out for the next month or so?
