Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Could Be The Lump On The Tongue Where The Tongue Was Pierced?
I had my tongue pierced 4 days ago, since then a small purple/black/red lump has appeared right in front of the tongue bar. I am worried because I m cleaning my mouth after every meal and every morning and night, and the swelling and lump wont go away.
HI Thank for asking to HCM I really appreciate your concern and looking to the history given here I could say that if you have pierced the tongue then this is was not the good idea because this not such organ that could be pierce, the lump that you are having on your tongue could be due to piercing and in my opinion this need to be examined clinically, take care and have a nice day.
