yes. in fact, it helps heal new piercings if you do go swimming! (in chloriniated/non-chlorinated water) ... the chlorine helps disinfect it, while the constant flow of water over the piercing continually washes out impurities. If you go swimming many times a week, your piercing will heal faster than someone who never does. :)

If you just got the piercing done you may wish to give the sports a break (24~48 hours) straining and exerting will increase the blood pressure and this is not the greatest thing to do with a swelling tongue piercing. Remaining on cold stuff and looking after your piercing as well as ibuprofen or Advil will also help to ease the swelling. Then you can get back into the game, just go easy.

You can just as long as you don't get the piercing wet. Otherwise, you have to wait at least 2-3 months before you can get it wet while swimming. Water is filled with bacteria so submerging the piercing greatly increases the risk of infection.

Yes because it is not your tongue that is in the water, it is your body.

Sure but if you encounter too much discomfort in the inital stages with the piercings you may wish to give the "dipping" a break until the swelling goes down. Cut a rug and have fun.

Maintain your cleaning and tape the barbell down and go play, just be sure to clean the piercing after sports.


What does it mean if you had your tongue pierced a few days ago but sometimes when you move your tongue a certain way you get a really bad pain through your tongue?

It's probably because you just got your tongue pierced a few days ago. It is still healing. It'll take a week for the initial swelling and pain to subside, and a little longer for the wound to fully heal. Try not to play with it and swish it around too much.

Two weeks is the normal time for a step down barbell. You will still be able to play with the jewellery but avoid biting down on the jewellery due to it being much shorter than the original barbell.

How do you avoid craters on your tongue when having your tongue pierced?

This happened to me because when I first got it pierced, I played with it too much. Although it is hard to resist when you first get it done, do not play with it and it will be fine. My crater got so big I have to wear a large ball on the top and a small one down the bottom so it doesnt come through the hole.
