Common Questions and Answers about Tongue piercing listerine

tongue

Avatar n tn I had recently gone to a local piercing shop to get my tongue pierced. The piercer said I had this white stuff on my tongue and that he couldn't pierce me because of it. I've had this white stuff on my tongue forever. I started to notice it when I was about 11, I'm 20 now. I brush my teeth every day including my tongue. It just won't go away. My tongue doesn't hurt or anything. Should I be worried? How can I get it to go away?

Avatar m tn Early last week I had one canker sore in my mouth, I used Listerine (both with and without alcohol) as it reduces the pain of the sore. I used it rather compulsively, like 7-8 times a day. Later last week, I notice that the white coating at the back of the tongue is thick. I can scrap it off and it looks like old milk. Is it because of the use of Listerine that somehow change the environment in mouth? Is it because of any other disease? I have stopped Listerine use now.

850029 tn?1238857820 Does anyone know if I could put a drop or two of listerine in my dogs water? I know they have stuff specifically made for dogs but not sure what's good? I would like something that cleans and freshens. My Chihuahua has bad teeth. She's lost a few and I think brushing them would be painful for him. I've tried the stuff that you spray on them but it is extremely difficult. (I get more on his face then anywhere.
Avatar n tn I think I may have burned my tongue on listerine or it could just be conincidence. Last week (thurs) I cleaned my mouth with listerine but think I held it too long in my mouth and my tongue was against it. On Friday I noticed that my tongue and lower lip inside the mouth were burning. There are little tiny red dots that have appeared on the tip and round the outer edge of my tongue and my tongue feels like it is on fire or really burning.
Avatar n tn I have also had my tongue pierced for 8-9 weeks. Is this blotch related to my tongue piercing? and what is this red blotch? what should i do? please help p.

Avatar n tn I got hairy tongue when I followed the directions of the person who pierced my tongue. He said to rinse with listerine after eating, drinking, smoking,..... And I did. When my tongue started getting white, I thought it was just being dried out from the Listerine, then I thought infection, so I went to my dentist. Hairy Tongue, YUCK! it *****, I dont even feel comfortable kissing my husband, unless I just scraped it off. I cringe just writing about it.

237053 tn?1258828426 My tongue has been sore since before begining treatment. Now it's getting more sore and it has whitish/yellowish coat on it. I've shown dr's and none of them had said anything about yeast. However I posted on another forum and the majority of them said it sounds like yeast. But I don't have any vaginal itching or stomach problems. My LLMD said in his notes I had a slightly furred tongue.
Avatar f tn Hello, it started last week- I woke with burning tongue, mainly on the tip of the tongue. I used Listerine (alcohol free) mouthwash to subside the inflammation, it didn't help much, and after 2 days I felt slight pain in left side of tongue. I rushed to the walkin clinic. The Dr confirmed my tongue looked bruised and prescribed Oracort paste (3 times per day), it actually worsened the condition, and now I can see a bump at the site, which is actually painful.

Avatar m tn The girl was 22 years old from Poland. She had one tongue piercing which went right through her tongue and one lips piercing. She gave me fellatio for some 3-5 minutes and then she did vigorous handjob and then fellatio again. She then did handjob again until I ejaculated. I removed the condom and could see the semen inside. However I am worried since she had piercings and this could have made holes in the condom and let viruses through.
Avatar m tn Hi, I met a CSW yesterday and we french kissed for a while. She had a piercing on her tongue. She said she had her piercing done quite a while back. What if the piercing was bleeding or still not healed? Do I need a 3 month wait period to test for HIV?
Avatar f tn The first time I mentioned this to two different doctors 5 months ago they said burnt toast could of caused an irritation and by using listerine I kept irritating it. I stopped using listerine and waiting for the side growth to go away. Then bumps in the back of my tongue developed 2 months after and I still have the growth on the side of my tongue. I am going to go to the doctor again soon, I work, go to school and volunteer so I hardly have anytime for myself.
Avatar f tn it can take weeks for tongue piercing to heal, and some pain and swelling is normal. If you see any pus or indication of infection or fever, take it out and see dr for antibiotics.. I have several piercings myself and I know it ***** having to take them out.. Also a possibility you're allergic to the jewlery?
Avatar m tn In any case I had a lot of pain in that area, but also there was swelling under the right side of my tongue, which was also painful. I told my uncle (who is a physician) and he told me to use Listerine when I brush my teeth, that it works as an antibiotic and the gland would go down and the pain would go away. I decided to take him up on his advice.
Avatar n tn The process of piercing would put someone at risk if the piercing instrument was contaminated with HIV infected blood, just as contaminated needles risk HIV transmission occupationally for health care workers or among injection drug users. But simply having a pierced tongue, navel, or nipple doesn't mean the instruments used in piercing were contaminated. If everybody with a body piercing were at increased risk for HIV, then that would apply to amost every woman.
Avatar f tn I want to get my tongue pierced for my husband and surprise him with it is it safe to get a tongue piercing when your pregnant or is it not safe and it can affect the baby hit me up and tell me what you think.
