Hold off on kissing or oral sex while healing.
Healing times vary from person to person, but Skellie says to wait at least 30 days after the client has their jewelry shortened — not just the initial piercing.
Beside above, do tongue piercings affect kissing?
Avoid hitting their teeth with your piercing.
When you kiss someone, and you have a tongue piercing, snakebites, or a lip ring, it’s important to be mindful of the other person’s teeth. Piercings can chip teeth and cause oral damage for the other person. Be gentle when you are kissing someone and you have a piercing.
Also, can swallowing a tongue ring hurt you? If it’s too large to pass through the more narrow passageways of the digestive system, though, it could become lodged and create an obstruction. It’s unlikely, though. Swallowing a barbell is a little riskier, and regardless, most barbells pass through the system without incident.
