Any time your skin is pierced, there can be an infection, because bacteria can get in through the hole in the skin, until it heals. Tongues are particularly vulnerable because there is usually a lot of bacteria in the mouth, as a result of the food that passes through, and the saliva, which creates an environment in which bacteria can live. Dry skin is more resistant to infection than wet skin, for this reason. So yes, tongue piercing is risky, and I would strongly recommend against it. You do not need to take that kind of risk.
yes
Get it pierced by a professional, and follow ALL instructions given to you by your piercer. This does not guarantee that it will not get infected, but is the only way to reduce the risk.
There is no length requirement for getting your tongue pierced. Anyone can get their tongue pierced with the exception of people that have their own personal and/or medical reasons.
No, your tongue cannot split from getting it pierced. Splitting or bifurcating the tongue involves a surgical procedure to physically divide the tongue in half. Piercing simply places jewelry through the tongue.
Ahhh Yes you can.
generally pregnancy does not interfere with piercings. if your pregnant and you have your belly button pierced, put a zip tie or long bar in it so the piercing will not tear. its likely that if your tongue is infected that it is not pregnancy related. try getting a long bar, and see if that helps.
Getting a tongue piercin will hurt a bit regardless of what you've had pierced before.
It means it's infected!
What do you think? You're getting a hole stabbed through your tongue.
At a piercing parlor. Getting it done by a professional is best.
Yes in fact you can.
Like sticking out your tongue and having someone jab an icepick through it.
