Why can't i pronouce properly after a tongue piercing?

Asked by kozueworldz about 1 year ago, 9 answers.

Hello. Recently my tongue piercing had just healed.But not complelely heal.But when I talk to my friends,they say when I talked to them,I sound like I have short tongue.So that means I cant pronouce properly after my tongue piercing.What can I do to...

pronouce properly?I mean,without taking out the barbell.Or can I pronouce properly after it fully healed?

you have basically a piece of metal in your mouth, when it heals and you get used to it you'll be able to talk just fine, its because your tounge will have to move a bit differently to pronouce words with the piercing, dont worry about it

Did you by chance have your fingers pierced as well?

...because your 'speaking muscle' has been impaled on a spike.

do you still have the long barbell they put in your tongue when it was pierced?
if so, after it's healed, and the swelling is all gone, put a regular sized one in.

When I wear the standard length barbell,I sounds like having short tongue.But if I wear regular length,I still sound like short tongue..But better than the standard length..
