Tongue problem?!
Question: ok i got my tongue pierced a week ago, and yesterday i started to notice these little white bumps in the back of my mouth on my tongue. i use Crest mouthwash now (i was using Listerine) once i saw it because i thought that was there because of the Listerine. now today when i was brushing and all that b4 i go to bed i notice there are white & red bumps there and my tongue has this little stinging sensation once in a while that last for about 1-2 minutes. Im heading out to the doctor 2marrow morning but i want to know what are the possibilities of the outcome. what could this mean...is it an infection form the tongue ring or is it something minor or is it something major?

Maybe you're allergic to the metal in the tounge ring.
I know if I wear nickel in my ears they get infected...
YOU KNOW WHAT??? Your tongue really doesn't like having that ring in there! This is probably what your doctor will say. What you are having must be related to the piercing...nothing else has gone on in your mouth. Put the ring in your ear....after you see the doctor... ?
