It's misinformation like this that ruins the business just like myths and misinformation in the reptile world!
Are you serious? Maybe you should do some research on this subject before speaking up. ANY piercing will periodically open up and secrete fluid... I don't care if we are talking ears, nose, eyebrow, chin, lip, whatever. A tongue piercing gets more abuse then any other because of the daily activities of talking and eating.
Not to mention it stays warm and moist in your mouth 100% of the time.... lets not forget the constant bio masses being introduced to it (food).

Re: What do you think about tongue piercings?
I'm not the biggest fan of these... I just don't fully understand the point to them...
BUT, if you want it and it fits you, go for it!!!

What do you do for a living? Cause I've been a professional piercer for the last 10 years and have been working in shops for the last 15! I've had over 27 piercings for the last 8 years and none of them secrete any fluid!

Re: What do you think about tongue piercings?
Healed skin shouldn't just randomly open up and secrete fluids. Lord, every scar on my body would be oozing.
The tongue is different, it's a big muscle, and even having the post out for some hours, it begins to heal right away.

Wow, you're only 13? I had no idea! :) Hate to tell you this, but any reputable piercer usually has an age limit of 16 - even with your parent's permission. But that's here in California, so I'm not sure what the laws are elsewhere.
I had mine pierced when I was 20, and it honestly didn't hurt much... plus recovery was quick (1 week), although annoying because you literally can't talk! I had to take it out a year later, due mostly to the problems it was causing with my teeth. I've since had the bottom two worked on, and still haven't repaired the chip it left on the top teeth. So be warned, they are NOT good for dental health... as my dentist said, "tongue/mouth piercings have paid for my son's college education." :cool: Think carefully about that before you do anything - you'll probably have to wait a few years anyway.
