How long does it take for a tongue ring to heal?
I’m planning on getting my tongue pierced, I was wondering how long it takes to heal? Because I’m getting it pierced over spring break and I don’t want to spend the whole vacation in pain xD
Also what should I expect afterwards? Like lots of soreness/swelling, etc.? Hopefully it’s not much worse than when I got my wisdom teeth out haha.

Hey мαѕєяαтι gяαᴎтυяιšмσ,
Ive never had a tongue piercing but these sites had a lot of info (btw my friend got hers done and yeah it does swell just make sure u drink a lot of cold water)
DO use Difflam-CT throat lozenges (or some other antibacterial/anti- inflammatory lozenge) until you have the smaller barbell inserted. They perform two valuable functions, firstly, they are anti-bacterial which prevents infections; secondly, and most importantly they are anti- inflammatory which helps relieve swelling and promotes healing. Using these will greatly reduce the period your tongue will be swollen for.
DO rinse your mouth with a disinfectant such as Listerine or cepacol after eating any food (for 14 days), the mouthwash must be diluted to 1/4 of normal strength with water, using undiluted mouthwash reduces the mouth’s natural enzymes and peptides which help healing.
DO wait a minium of 10 days before attempting to change over to the shorter stem, if you do so before that period your tongue can swell up all over again.
DO remove plaque which can form on the jewellery, remove this very gently with a soft toothbrush during the healing period. After the piercing is healed use an antiplaque mouthwash, and you may remove the jewellery to clean it once a month.
DO check that the jewellery is screwed on tight once a week, clean hands with a germicidal soap before handling. The ball that screws off should be on the bottom, and it must be turned clockwise to tighten it.
DO be careful when you first start eating solid food to take very small bites and be careful when you chew to keep your tongue level in your mouth while eating, so the jewellery doesn’t knock against your teeth, and so you don’t bite the barbell and shatter a tooth! This is less of a problem after you get the smaller barbell.
DO keep cold water in the fridge, and add lots of ice to make it really cold, drink this when you first wake up in the morning. The swelling will be worse than usual because when you lie down more blood goes to your head, sip the iced water very slowly, this will help alleviate the swelling.
DO eat lots of cold foods i.e. ice cream, frozen yoghurt, suck on chipped or crushed ice, or very small ice blocks and drink lots of ice water this will alleviate pain and reduce swelling. Frozen ice blocks in packs from the supermarket are cheap and you can suck on them all day.
DON’T talk too much while you have the first (longer) barbell in, because the barbell is longer (to accommodate swelling) excess movement will cause the barbell to cut the top of the wound. This problem will get better once the swelling goes down and a shorter barbell is inserted.
DON’T eat food that’s hot in temperature ie. coffee, tea, soup as this can be painful during the healing phase. Don’t eat spicy hot food ie. chilli, curry because this can increase the swelling during healing.
DON’T use undiluted mouthwash as this destroys the mouth natural enzymes which promote healing and it can cause ulceration.
DON’T put anything dirty in your mouth such as fingernails, pens, etc. And you must refrain from oral sex for the first 10-14 days, this includes kissing even if you are in a monogamous relationship.
DON’T play with the piercing or chew on it during the healing period as this can lead to excess scar tissue formation and delayed healing.
DON’T remove or replace the jewellery during the healing period, as the hole closes up very quickly and it’s painful to reinsert the jewellery once this happens. Even after the piercing is healed it will close up within a day if you remove the jewellery

What is a decent gear ratio for a ring and piston in a truck differential?
I have a 1990 GMC Sierra 2wd that i use as a daily driver that has a chevy 350 engine… I really want to slowly rebuild everything in it and im looking into rebuilding my rear axle so that i know it will handle the power the engine will be putting out (eventually 500 or more)… What is a good ratio for a daily driver that likes acceleration from a stop yet still does freeway driving?

Hey sniperlif3,
Worry about getting 500 horsepower then change the gear ratio with a ring and “piston” more to your likeing.

Hey Elyse E,
If you take it to a jeweler they can polish it for really cheap. It will look beautiful and brand new when they are done.

What is the purpose/ function of the adjustable ring on the left handle bar?
I own a Kawasaki Ninja 250r, and when as soon as a tried to give the bike some gas, the engine died. After I rotated the ring on the left handlebar (looked like a small vent opened), everything was fine.
Exactly what does this ring do?

Hey icechick,
Have you tried saddle soap? Only other thing that I know of would be to try to dye it. Sorry I couldn’t be more help, but do try the saddle soap.
