Piercing Salon

The risks of body piercing vary; depending on what part of your anatomy is being decorated. For instance having your tongue pierced can scrape tooth enamel (and even break teeth) and cause the need for expensive dental work in the future. Also a pierced tongue is more prone to medical complications in general, including but not limited to blood poisoning, blood clots hemorrhaging, nerve damage, paralysis, staph infections, methicillin resistant bacteria (flesh eating disease) and toxic shock can result. Why is it so hard for the tongue to heal after a piercing?  Piercing your tongue requires a much larger hole then the tiny pinprick that is used to pierce a person’s earlobe. The fact that the tongue is constantly in motion also makes it more difficult for a tongue piercing would to heal fast.
