i have my tounge pierced have had it for about 11 years(wow ) my boyfriend at the time and i got them done together, i think i swelled for a day or two never ever had any problems with it swelling again, i forget its even there now and people dont notice it, neve chipped my teeth on it, i think its great at enhancing oral infact i think every male should have it done. but cant talk my dh into it he is a chicken plus i guess he thinks he is to old and maybe we are now but ive had mine for so long i think i would feel very weird without it for instance during surgery its the first thing i ask for when i wake up .
had my belly pierced when it used to be flat and firm took that out as soon as i got pudgy, but i can still get a ring in it so if im lucky maybe someday ill put it back in doubt ill ever wear a belly button shirt again with the stretch marks and such but who knows.
any way imo piercings are fun and ive always wanted my eyebrow done,
