Hi DaVo :-) i had my tongue pierced 4mo back and it healed amazingly well; however, i've recently started changing out the bar and balls quite regularly (once to twice weekly), and wanted to ask something because i've encountered some surprising difficulty... sometimes, when i take the existing bar out to put in a new cuter style or something, i find it difficult to locate the fistula. for example yesterday, i tried to put my tongue in different positions (i.e. flat, arched, against my upper teeth, etc) just minutes after taking out the old one and it was SO HARD to do! i was like, there is no way it could have closed in 5 minutes, i must be doing something wrong... do you have any counsel related to what happened? i eventually got a new bar in and it's there now, nothing bled, but my tongue is sore and red around the piercing holes. i don't know what i did wrong. the piercing is totally healed and i have had this issue only twice before, i just want to know if there is a particular way to ensure the bar goes straight through without a lot of pushing and effort bc i feel it should be easy after 3 months of being pierced. please advise and thanks again, you are amazing! x
@BodyPiercingTattooing4 жыл бұрын
Hello Jenna. Well I'm guessing there might be a few causes. My first guess is the jewelry is externally threaded. Meaning that the end acts like a nut and screws on to the post. The threading is rough and can cause damage. In the future only buy internally threaded jewelry. The end or ball is like a little screw that threads into the post. This style has no rough exposed threading and will not damage the piercing as easily. The other possibility is that the jewelry is slightly thicker or the wrong gauge. Often lower end jewelry is marked 14g but in reality is closer to 13g. One last possible cause s that you just put it in at a weird angle. This is common with tongue piercing because it's hard to get the right angle inside your mouth. Also it's between two muscles and depending on the state of the muscles they can squeeze the piercing shut. Here's some hints. First off buy internally threaded jewelry. Second use a water based lubricant. Third make sure the tongue is in a relaxed state when you slid the jewelry in. Lastly, if you cam find a guide pin that threads on to the jewelry it will reduce the likelihood of damaging the jewelry.
@Jtrp734 жыл бұрын
@@BodyPiercingTattooing OMG THANK YOU. This is the most helpful advice I have ever received. I just tried it with the lubricant and it went in a treat. I am so relieved. Thank you for the advice, I will try to flatten my tongue out more when I replace jewellery. Unfortunately I bought a load of externally threaded 'variety pack' balls for the ends of what they _claim_ to be 14g barbells, but ehh, now I am skeptical! I will try to purchase higher-quality internally threaded jewellery for the future! Thanks a million... you are awesome x

The dairy thing comes up from time to time but I've yet to come across any hard proof that it would be an issue. The idea that dairy would cause yeast bacteria to grow in your mouth is rather far fetched. In fact, I suggest yogurt to avoid thrush. I'm guessing that this fear of dairy came about when everyone was suggesting listerine and other alcohol base mouthwash back in the 90s. It cause thrush overgrowth as does over rinsing. If dairy caused yeast outbreaks and thrush after a tongue piercing than it would even without the piercing. It simply doesn't make sense. If some how dairy causes because you have a wound in your mouth then it would happen all the time because we bite and damage our tongues, cheeks and lips all the time. Did you get one the last tone you eat cheese after you bit your tongue? I think it's just a case of piercers tell other piercers this causes it and them repeating it as fact without doing any research. The only thing I can think of is you would want to consume raw dairy. Raw milk can contain harmful microorganisms in it. It's why we pasteurization dairy products.

It sounds like the normal discharge. Unlike non-oral piercings where the discharge hardens on the jewelry and around the piercing holes, it doesn't harden and often forms strings that look kind of like snot.
