Yoshi 0 #7 April 6, 2004 I have had my tongue pierced for 7 years now.. after I had it for 3 years I took it out for about 9 months and I was able to put the barbell back in without a problem. I have not swallowed any part of it though.. never.. perhaps you need to get better jewelry if its coming loose on you? you can always use other things to keep the hole open for a very short period without causing too many problems.. I would jsut suggest going to a shop and spending the 15-20 bucks and get a new one..._________________________________________ this space for rent.

weegegirl 2 #10 April 6, 2004 whoa! when i had my tounge peireced, there were so many times i almost swallowed the ball!!! i'd be playing with it, twirling it around in the airplane or something and it would pop off on jump run. That's one drama I'm glad I don't miss. Good luck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BethUK 0 #11 April 6, 2004 Oh I will, I have other ones at my own house, but im at my parents, so had to be a little creative...mines only been pierced 6 months, so dont really wanna risk it healing up, or coming out while im asleep, the ball was identicle to the one i swallowed and I did steralise it, so I'm sure all will be ok Beth xxx------------------------------------------------------------ "This isn't flying...it's falling with style!"

Paige 0 #15 April 6, 2004 Been there, its a pain. If you buy a replacement, make sure it is from the same company. It may seem like it fits, but you may loose it again. If you are unsure of the maker of your jewerly, just get a new barbell. It will be close to the same price as the new ball depending on the gauge in your mouth. HOpe this helps.Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paige 0 #16 April 6, 2004 QuoteHaha, so funny that you mention it. I swallowed mine on sunday night. It's the 3rd one i've swallowed in the last 5 months. I need to screw them on tighter. If they are metal or acryllic balls, be careful screwing them on too tight. This can be a problem too, you ruin the thread of the screw/ball and it doesn't close or screw on completely. This is true esp. of the acryllics. Just make sure its on there good and tighten it once every few weeks.Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BethUK 0 #17 April 6, 2004 Yup, cheers! I will replace the whole lot I think...want somethign cooler anyway!

kelel01 1 #19 April 6, 2004 Since you already swallowed a ball, make sure you don't swallow the shaft as well. Sorry . . . when I got my tongue pierced, I just thought it was really funny that they were called the shaft and the balls. Kelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflynick 0 #22 April 6, 2004 HINT: When you are tightening the balls, use a cloth/towel/t-shirt/whatever to hold both balls with (please restrain yourselves with the ball holding jokes!!) This will give you better grip and you can put them on tighter. Use same technique to get them off. And if they come off again....spit, don't swallow.
