Anyone experienced bad breath with tongue piercing?

Question

I got it done three days ago.. i was wondering if it was just temporary while healing or if i had a real problem on my hands.. lemme know if anyone can help thanks

Answer 1

No, it's definitely normal, the exact same thing happened to me. But don't worry it's completely normal and it's temporary it'll go away in about 2 weeks! Just use saline water or mouthwash a lot :) The faster it heals the faster the bad breath will go away. (It's also a good motivation to stay away from kissing a boyfriend coz you're not supposed to... hahaha)

Answer 2

tongue Piercing!

As long as there is no pain or swelling the risk of infection is pretty low.  Therefore, you should probably get a better quality stud as the smell my be coming from the metal or plating on the stud. perhaps there is food  stuck on it.

Good luck
