Belly button pierce? or tongue pierce?

Belly button is better than the tongue.  Heals faster, more durable and I think sexier.  If you check the web and ask around, below the belt and more private piercings actually heal quicker for a number of reasons.  Sexiness at that point is quite a private issue.\n\nIf you have a "respectable" office job in corporate america, go for the belly button or something more private.  it will not interfere with your "corporate career" like a toungue or eyebrow piercing will.  Corporate america is still extremely conservative.\n\nGood luck -- and make sure it is done professionally (sterile) and you take good care of it.

You should take them out now because your boobs are gonna get huge. Im 24 weeks pregnant. your nipples might start to push out the rings and they can get infected. I still have my bellybutton ring in tho. LOL

i have me ears, noes and I once had y belly button pierced.  But to take care of them just make shure you keep it clean, soak it in sea salt, move it around a little bit each day to make shure your skin isn't going to grow on to it.  And if anythng seems wrong call your piercer.  I am planning on getting more piercings later on so that is why I know how to take care of them.

Well, it's not technically a piercing if it's not going through a piece of your body. I know some companies make magnetic tongue jewelry that magnetizes two balls together and stays on your tongue, though I would be wary because these could be easily swallowed.

Why are you playing with or pressing your belly button to begin with?!?...So you cannot blame us if we are thinking the way we are!....Were you cleaning your belly button?  If so, then I can understand.  There are nerve endings there almost like the bottoms of some folks feet.  Some are ticklish there and some are not!

You mean top or bottom? Well my sister got the top done, I think that's the most popular spot. As for getting infections, you should talk to your doctor about it or whoever pierces it. I would suggest jsut keeping it clean, and change it regularly (rust, yucky!) lol I don't know if it's possible for the barbell (sp?) to get rusty. Another thing for you to ask about! :P Happy early 16th! I just recently turned 16. You should get your license too.

The bellybutton is a scar from the umbilical cord.  The umbilical cord is attached to the baby from the mother in the womb and supplies nutrients and oxygen.  \n\nWhether your belly button is an "in-sy" or "outy" depends on how the doctor tied the umbilical cord after you were born.\n\nUntil they start growing babies in jars, everyone is going to have an umbilical cord and a scar (belly button) when it's removed.

You should talk with your orthodontist to see what his/her suggestion is for the tongue ring.  If you've already had the tongue ring, I don't see how braces would affect the tongue ring.  But, your orthodontist would be the perfect person to ask.

It's my scary clown buddy asking about belly buttons today. I actually hate doing anything to my belly button. It gives me the creeps. Still, it must be cleaned since it is an innie par excellence. But I have to grit my teeth and I just hate the whole (so to speak) process.  Not painful exactly, no, but unpleasant, just the same. I swear it is connected inside to some part of me still and that part doesn't enjoy being bothered.\n\nSo in two questions you have found out two of my darkest secrets. The hating clown thing and now this creepy belly button thing. That's enough, now.\n\np.s. Do you think the reason you got so many joking answers back is cuz you are a CLOWN?  (oh, and there's gotta be something attached to the inside of the bb b/c it feels so awful when you tug on it.)

Its rejecting. I'm a body piercer. I see this all the time.\nRejection is basically the way that your body pushes out a foreign object, the same way it would push out a sliver.Your skin, dies in front of the object so it can push it out.\nRejection can happen for a number of reasons.\n\n-changing the piercing too early ( within the first 4 to 6 months)\n-changing the piercing to a heavy dangely barbell\n-wearing dangely jewlery that gets caught on things.\n-wearing cheaply made jewlery that is not surgical stainless steel, and is only stainless steel, it is not implant grade, and causes irritation.\n-wearing jewlery that is made wrong, the bar is too short.\n-getting a newly pierced piercing caight on something, or hit, or bumped on something. ( you also can it it in your sleep)\n-cleaning it wrong.\n-playing with it too much\n-rotating it \n-getting pierced with small or large jewlery\n-allergy\n-your body could just not want the piercing for no reason.\n\nIt could be anything. It could also be something that isnt on the list. \nThe only thing you can do is take it out, wait until it heals over and re pierce. The longer you wait, the worse the scar tissue will be. I've seen people wait so long, that the scar tissue is un pierceable.You must make sure that there is no infection firts. The best thing to do is to see a doctor, or your piercer first.\n\nI found a picture from a random website I'm not affiliated with) of a badly rejected navel piercing)

i also have my tongue pierced and this is what worked for me. first off, it should only take about 3 days for the swelling to go down. in the meantime, suck on ice cubes every once in awhile, the little ones work best. also they tell u not to eat anything dairy but i did. everytime u eat drink, smoke, put anything in your mouth, rinse it out with Listerene, the Original flavor,(the other flavors tend to irritate it because of the dyes) for about two weeks. after the two weeks, rinse out every other day.  \nif you are prone to infections then it may be the type of jewelry, or just not proper care. also ask your piercer about "deep cleanings".

thats odd actually, i have my tongue pierced, and no guys assume i am gay, instead they ask me if i would like to try it out on them. this piercings is obviously percieved to be associated with sexual favors.

This is the only actual article I could find on tongue tattooing while searching on Yahoo.  There are a lot of pages about tongue piercings.

couldnt help but see your name sweetie 16 theres no way I would let my 16 yr old daughter get her tongue pierced or any thing else pierced in less it was her ears. Or any age for that matter. Also when your in school you could get a bad rep people think things that are not always true . Besides that it is really  really painful. and could be something you regret. But with all that said it is your choice and the best thing I can say is suck up for about 2 weeks one isnt enough she will see right through it and wait tell shes in a good mood and have a talk with her as to why you want it. Hope this helps.
