What does it mean when you have a tongue ring and your tongue is swollen and it hurts?

Answer 1

There are a few things that I know of that could cause this: abrasion from over-brushing; Allergies; or even a dermatitis or salivary gland infection. Without seeing it, it's hard to tell. Try this: Mix up some warm salt water -- just tap water with 2 tsp salt to 1 cup of water. Use that to swish it around under your tongue where it's irritated. Spit it out when you're done, of course. See if that helps. If it doesn't get better in a day or so, or other symptoms show up, consider seeing a doctor.

Answer 2

It means that the under tissue of your tongue has been under a lot of stress all of a sudden like if you eat tough foods or even in gymnastics where you get really stressed or stiff in your whole body. So eat softer foods, relax, and it will be gone less than 2 days! Good Luck:)

Answer 3

sore under tongue is nothing but the yellow ulcer around the tongue. It will go away by own in a few days even though you can consult with doctor if any bleeding on the gums.

Answer 4

That can sometimes mean you are sucking it to the top of your mouth too much, or you are moving it around too much.

Answer 5

Well after you get your tongue piercing, I think it hurts because the ball is being pushed up on the bottom, and its probably bruised, like mine is. So I know what you are feeling.

Answer 6

If it's new, it's normal. Otherwise, go see your piercer. It might have slled because you are sick or something and the bar is too short. Just go see your piercer :3
