Its a keloid..and is normal. It's scar tissue. Be careful if you take out the jewelry, it may close right up on you with that being there.
Yes its normal I have 3 tongue piercings and have got a "bubble" twice. my piercer told me to get a desolvable aspirin dip it in some water to get it fizzing up and hold it on the bubble for a few mintues a day. What this does is the aspirin burns the bubble and within 2 - 4 days it should be gone. This works with any piercing. I did the same with my both sides of my nose.

What is the white lump in front of your tongue piercing?

White lump in front of tongue piercing?
This is totally fine and normal. Don't sweat! All it is is the tongue's version of a scab. Since its a moist environment though, it's not going to be a normal looking/feeling scab that you would get on your skin. Basically, white blood cells rushing towards the excess bacteria in the wound, and it forms pus. The pus gradually just ends up forming a white lump near your piercing which will go away when your tongue is totally healed. Just keep rinsing with sea salt.
Why is the area in front of your tongue piercing hard 3 days later?
That is a discussion you should be having with your professional body piercer.
I got my tongue pierced 5 days ago and I thought it was healing well with normal swelling and soreness but I noticed a small white bump in the front of my piercing. Is this scar tissue?
That is the tongues version of a scab and it will go away in a few days.
You got your tongue pierced less than a week ago and there is a lump in front of it on the top of your tongue that keeps coming back it is small white and gooey What is this Is it an infection?
Yeah that's normal and it will ease and disappear as the piercing heals. It's basically the same type of discharge that would occur with any other piercing except the discharge is on your tongue so it looks weird. Fuzzy tongue! It's OK it will go away just stay on your aftercare routine.

Do you need to seek medical attention if your tongue piercing is more than 1 inch back from the tip?
No you do not in fact, the proper placement is at least that far back from the tip, depending on a person's tongue length. The placement varies and of course depends on the person, sometimes they wish it to be as far back as you can pierce it safely to allow for more piercings in front of them. Your piercer should've been careful to avoid the veins that are visable underneath for proper placement and a piercing that will heal well and correctly. If your piercing site is infected, still bleeding, painful or still severely swollen after the general 3 to 4 days after the initial piercing or your tongue is turning gray or black then yes, you should remove your piercing if you can, immediately, & seek medical attention.
How does a tongue piercing affect you?
if your tongue is between your front teeth when you suck it, you get an open bite. your front teeth can also stick out. i suck my tongue too but instead of it between my teeth, i fold my tongue in half and then suck it. that caused me to have an overbite because somehow in folding my tongue and sucking it, it caused my lower jaw to go in hence my overbite.
White hard area area around your tongue ring is that normal?
I had mine done 2 days ago and I have that, too. It's on the top side towards the front of the piercing. I don't know what it is. Trying to find out myself...I think it's probably just scar tissue in the healing process because it doesn't hurt...
How do you do a tongue web piercing at home?
DON'T PIERCE THE MUSCLE. Use the skin in front of the muscle. My webbing just got pierced nd I pierced it wrong nd I pierced it trhough the muscle it is not the width of 5 quarters stacked up together... The PREFERRED tools to use: 16 gauge hollow needle gloves (if comfortable, some find it to get in the way of piercing his/her tongue web) A 16 gauge circular barbell/captive bead/curved barbell (doesn't matter) Okay, I find that my tongue web has this little part in the middle that is thicker than the rest of my web, kind of like 2 mini balls on the side of my web. DO NOT PIERCE THIS. Pierce above it. Make sure to take care of the piercing, it can become infected easily, it may also reject. Swelling is normal for 7-10 days. Hope this helped. (:
Can you smoke after getting your tongue peirced?
No! Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption for 24-48 hours after the piercing has been done. Smoking will dry out the area too much and also could infect it. As soon as my tongue was pierced i was straight out the front and had a cigerette. My piecing never dried out or got infected. Its not that it will dry out your piercing. I does not do that at all. The nicotine in cigarettes slows down the healing process, causing the piercing to take longer to heal. It is the same concept with alcohol -- slows down the healing process. Some people still smoke and drink and are okay, but yet for other people their piercing may never heal if they continue to do it constantly.
