What happens if you remove your tongue piercing before its healed?
Well nothing then again you could loose the piercing. Don't mess around with your piercing unless you have decided to go without it, then take it out and leave it out. Screwing around with a piercing that isn't healed is inviting infection, tearing and other nasty things to happen to a new piercing just because you were curious.

I got my tongue pierced and its to far back i went to 2 other piercers and they said it was fine but im unhappy with it if i take it out how long should i wait to get it repierced?
Normal placement is 3/4" from the tip of the tongue to the top ball. If your tongue is unusually long placement can vary slightly. If you remove the piercing (no sooner than 72 hours from the time the piercing was first done) you will need to wait at least 3~4 weeks from removal date to get the piercing redone. The tongue swells and distends once it's pierced so we need to be sure this swelling is gone and the old piercing had healed up so there is no bump or distension from the old piercing to interfere with the new piercing. edit: did you know people get (not uncommon either) brain abscesses from their tongue piercings? be careful, because this is definitely one of the most dangerous areas to pierce considering how close it is to your brain stem.
Does lemon help or harm a tongue piercing?
Well I for one wouldn't be using lemon on any oral piercing let alone a tongue piercing, acetic acid or citric acid will irritate the piercing if it's new. Think about reviewing your written aftercare instructions your professional body piercer provided for you.
How long can discharge continue with tongue piercing?
Typically a new tongue piercing will discharge for 6 to 8 weeks and then ease off as the fistula* is formed (*fistula is the tube of new tissue that makes up the actual piercing hole). Swelling is at it's height for about 2 weeks (14 days post piercing) then once the swelling has eased it's a very good idea to have the piercing jewellery downsized to avoid dental damage from biting the jewellery. Plastic barbells are not recommended for new piercings and actually can fail due to the swelling leading to swallowing or inhaling the plastic barbell. A tongue piercing like any piercing is never to be considered fully healed until it's a full year old, you can have a light heal but it takes a full year for the piercing to season up allowing for removal or the jewellery for extended period of time.
If you take your own barbell would they Perice your tongue with it?
Most studios won't use your own barbell unless it was used for a previous tongue piercing you had. See we need to know what the barbell is made of , some barbells available from "novelty stores" are generally junk and that's the last thing we want to put into your tongue. Now if the barbell is the right size for your piercing and you can confirm it's good quality, and the piercer is good with that, they will need to autoclave it before it can be used. This involves putting it in the autoclave to sterilize it before it can be considered safe for a new piercing. So your best bet is to call your local body piercing studio's and see what they have to say. So will, some won't, others might.
