Smoking And Tongue Piercing?

[Julia_Dorst]

I'm getting my tongue pierced in like 2 weeks, I just wanted to know. Can I smoke after I get it pierced? And if not, how long do I have to wait?

you are supposed to wait a week, but I didn't. as long as you are using the correct mouth wash you will be fine. plus, your mouth is full of like healing enzymes in your saliva, so its actually pretty hard to get it infected. I smoked the day after getting it pierced, have had it for two years, and have never once had a problem with it.

You can smoke but I would wait like a day or two. If you're smoking weed it doesn't matter, but make sure you don't do any bjs (FOR 6 WEEKS), I know a girl who did and it got so gross and she has like a snake tonge now. Hope this helps lol.

How could she! unless she thought it was mostly healed and even then it can hurt from the contact and the sucking

Ok, it may be a bit late for you but for anyone else who smokes and reads this.

It is recomemnded that you cut down in the first two weeks of getting it pierced, and aafter you clean the piercing. It is best if you stop smoking completly as this shortens the healing time but if you can't then just cut back as much as you can.
