As long as you get it done by a professional and take care of it exactly as they tell you, your tongue piercing should be fine. For the first week your tongue will probably swell and you won't be able to eat solid food, but the tongue is a muscle so it heals faster then most piercings if taken care of properly. That being said, do not attempt to do this yourself, your tongue has a lot of nerves and blood vessels, pierce your own tongue in the wrong place and you could end up loosing feeling in your tongue, loose your taste or even worse bleeding to death! A good piercer spends 5-10 minutes examining your tongue to find the safest route through it. So be smart, go to a professional and good luck!
