    Help me oh wise ones! ;)

    I left my tongue bar out overnight and I can't seem to get it back through :(

    I'm very sad really, as funny as it sounds. Did it actually close up overnight? It seems to fast!! :eek:

    Tongue piercings can close up very quickly! How long have you had it pierced for?

    Probably did close up mizzlolly, if you can't get the bar in easily yourself don't push any harder as you may damage yourself

    I had it pierced two and a half years ago. The top part is still open, underneath isn't though. Fook! :(

    Wouldn't try to force it in,same thing happened to a friend of mine,he took it out one night,tried to put it in the next day but it wouldn't so he forced it in and something just popped,it was disgusting,he had to let it heal all over again.

    Maybe you should go back to your piercer, they might be able to get a smaller size bar in.

    Repiercing your tongue yourself is a pretty dodgy thing to try, and would REALLY not be recommended!!!

    I wouldn't recommend it either. It has happened to me a few times. Left it out for a night or two and it partially closed. Me, I forced it through. Had to heal again but it was okay. Should have went to the piercer though.

    I won't be taking it out for any extended period of time from now on. Unless I don't want it any more.
