Well Piercing has become extremely popular over the past few years and there are many parts of the body that can be pierced. Many Punks who decide to get their bodies pierced aren’t even aware of the possible consequences...!
Now guyz listen carfully..! Never min!
If you are considering piercing your tongue, lip or check consider these facts first:

This procedure can present considerable dental and medical risks. The dental dangers may be directly related to size of the piercing and the length of time worn Procedure-related risks:

Infection: is a possibility with any opening in skin or oral tissues. Since the mouth is teeming with bacteria, oral piercing carries a high potential for infection at the site of the piercing. Handling the jewelry once it has been placed increases the chances of developing an infection.

Prolonged bleeding: can occur when damage is done to the tongue's blood vessels.

Swelling and possible nerve damage: Swelling is a common symptom experienced after oral piercing. Since the tongue is in constant motion it can slow and complicate the healing process. It has been reported that some swelling due to tongue piercing have been serious enough to block the airway.

Blood borne disease transmission: of hepatitis B, C, D and G, and syphilis. Tetanus and tuberculosis are also a risk. The Institutes of Health has identified piercing as a possible route for the transmission of hepatitis.

Blood poisoning, toxic shock, septicemia, tetanus, AIDS, staph infections and sexually transmissible disease can be associated with oral piercing.**

Endocarditis: is a serious inflammation of the heart valves or tissues. The wound created during oral piercing provides an opportunity for oral bacteria to enter the bloodstream, where it can travel to the heart. This presents a risk for people who have cardiac abnormalities.

BuggytheVamp: Nothing horrible happened to me when I got my lip done.
All it did was swell for a few days; which is totally normal.

I'd say, if you find a good, trusted professional to do it
and if you don't play around with the piercing
or try and change it too early,
you won't really have any problems.

Of course, there are exceptions. [=

More people die of diabetes every single year, massive stroke, heart attacks, and greasy azz junk food and fast food, then from getting a freaking lip piercing..Hhahaha...Piercings fawking rule, and anybody that wants to start quoting bible lessons in a chat room forum, just remember the contradictory part of Exodus when the fleeing Jews construct a false golden idol, by "Removing thy piercings from thy ears and thy sons ears." So yeah..even the ancients were rocking gauges..hahaha...
