    I didn't feel mine at all, my girlfriend was talking to the dude while he had my tongue clamped out, and after drooling for like 5 min i was like we gonna do this or what.. He was like "uhh already did dude".

      The piercing isn't so bad. I found the clamp to be the worst part.

        I got my tongue pierced three times in different places so I had three piercings all together. I would suggest sucking alot of ice chips to keep swelling down.  Before I got my tongue pierced three different times though. My dentist and I would have debates about the one piercing because having my tongue pierced only once would cause damage to my teeth from accidently biting the ball while eating my food, this didn't matter if I had a metal ball or a plastic ball. You bite just right and you can chip or crack your teeth so needless to say I saw my dentist a lot. After about six years and spending a lot of money for dental bills I reluctantly took my tongue percings out. Broke my heart but I had to do it before the dentist took all my money so enjoy well you can just be careful and get a good dental plan.

        My nephew just got his pierced and said it hurt worse than ear piercing but wasn't that bad. If you do it, I would recommend getting a plastic ball. The metal will damage your teeth badly.

        My son had his done, and his tongue was swollen for a few days, and the only thing he could eat was applesauce, and foods that weren't going to be in contact with the piercing for too long. I wouldn't recommend doing it, but if you do, make sure that you listen to what they say about keeping it healthy. Hope this helps.

          The Piercing part doesn't hurt at all, but is sensitive for about a week while adjusting to
          new weight of the piercing. The bottom of the mouth, where the tongue sits will hurt more
          then the piercing itself.

          My mum and brother had theres done and they didnt feel any thing whereas when i had mine done it was a really really bad pain,, !!! Once its over its over though although you do get the swelling for about a week after and the pain of eating!! So if you do get it done to save even more pain stick to soups and soft food for about a week or soo!!!!

          I had my tongue done yesterday, the actual piercing part didnt hurt - its after that you feel the pain. I cant eat anything apart from jelly, icecream, mashed potatoes and soup! The swelling has gone down abit as i have been drinking lots of cold water and taking soluable painkillers, eating solids is hard so i wouldnt reccomend trying. I cant wait for the swelling to get down so i can have my bar changed to a smaller one, the large one gets uncomfortable after a while, apart from that i love my piercing :)

          I'm hoping to get my tongue pierced this weekend, i have had my navel pierced for almost two years and thought it was painless, even though i have read that tongue piercings are painless also I still have my doubs, can anyone think of way to reassure myself, or what to do whilst i'm having the piercing?

            I got my bellybutton pierced 2 years ago and it has never been infected. Don't use anything the piercing people give you. Wash ur belly piercing in the shower with non-scented soap. When you get out use a q-tip and put saline solution (contact solution) on it and just rub around the pierced area. Do that twice a day once after your shower and once at the end of the day. Unless you take showers at night then vis-versa.. Hope this helps.
