Can i eat noodles after tongue piercing

Thoughtfulness about what to eat after getting a tongue piercing is an important part of aftercare. Swelling, irritation, and general oral discomfort are to be expected with a new tongue piercing. Additionally, it’s important to be gentle with healing tissue to avoid complications. So, a diet of soft foods and lots of water is recommended by professional piercers for at least the first couple weeks of healing.

One: A Soft Diet Avoiding Acidic, Hot, Spicy, and Salty Foods

For the first few days up to the full 2 weeks, eating soft foods helps the piercing heal by not causing additional irritation or damage. Acidic, hot, spicy, and salty foods should be avoided because they can prolong the swelling or cause enough irritation for the piercing to bleed. Also, consider the level of stickiness of the food: extra “soft” items like oatmeal, peanut butter, and mashed potatoes are going to stick all over the mouth and aren’t actually a good option.

Another important part about what you can eat after getting a tongue piercing is chewing carefully during the healing period. The tongue will be swollen for the first few days, and the longer barbell stays in for about 2-3 weeks, until all the swelling is gone. Being more aware and deliberate about chewing and eating during this time helps reduce the chance of biting down on the barbell.

To get started, break food into smaller pieces so there is less to chew overall. Place the food carefully in the back of the mouth on one side or the other (over your molars), and bite down gently. Be careful to only bite/chew straight up and down at first as well, which also reduce the chance of the barbell getting caught in between teeth.

A fully liquid diet might be helpful and more comfortable for the first few days, but it is not required at all.

Two: Iced or Cold Water and Beverages

Staying well-hydrated is an important part of healing any wound, including tongue piercings. Water is always the best option to drink after getting a tongue piercing, but coconut water, teas, and juices that are not high in citrus/acid can also provide plenty of hydration.

Cold and iced beverages have the added benefit of helping soothe the swelling and giving some pain relief. Keep away from alcohol, acidic/citrusy juices, and heavily caffeinated beverages after getting a tongue piercing though because they can also irritate the tissue just like spicy foods can.

It’s important to stick to a soft food diet for at least the first two weeks of healing or up to three or four weeks if the swelling is persistent (or if you encounter other problems).

Once the swelling is gone and the tongue piercing jewelry is downsized, you can resume your regular diet. Eating food items gently is still recommended as you get accustomed to chewing foods with the new barbell in your mouth.

Feel free to call your professional piercer to ask any questions or advice while your piercing is healing—they are happy to help you keep your piercing healthy.

Can i eat Roman noodles after i got my tongue pierced?

I definitely don't recommend it. The noodles will probably get wrapped around the bar and be a pain to deal with. I know some people with tongue piercings and they said noodles are EVIL when you're trying to heal the piercing lol. Do you have any soft foods at all? I bought lots of soup and popsicles after I got mine pierced.

no beacuse you cant eat anything hout for like 2 days your suppose to eat ice and drink water.nothing hot or any dairy products

don't reccommend it. But you can.

Do you mean Ramen noodles? Yes, just eat slowly & not when it's hot. It's not advisable to eat anything that are: - too hot/cold - spicy - hard/crunchy e.g. fried food - large e.g. steak, pizza ..as your tongue piercing need at least 3-7 days to "settle down". For some it's 2 weeks. Take plenty of water so won't get dehydrated & your mouth won't smell. Depending on how sensitive you are, some people can't take eggs & soya milk as well. Vinegar & hot spice may also trigger swelling. You can take most food as long as it's cut to small pieces so you won't use your tongue/mouth much. But better if you go on liquid diet e.g. yoghurt, blended fruits, porridge, soup just for the first few days...so you don't have to clean your mouth much & move the tongue. But you may take iced water to help the swelling.

Don't brush on it. Just gargle slowly.

Tongue piercing- for me is one of the most daring piercing types. A piercing tongue has many risks and complications. Not only this, but a tongue piercing can also affect speech quality and cause many other oral problems. You have to take proper care of it during as well as after piercing in order to avoid unwanted problems. Take proper knowledge of how to care for your piercing before getting it.

You can eat Shakes, baby foods, ice-creams, and yogurts after tongue piercing. Eating soft and cold foods are good to soothe the piercing. Avoid too spicy or too oily foods.

This is the safest period, you can eat anything anyway. Consider 40- 50days as the last stage of the healing process and continue with the tongue piercing cleaning routine.

You can reduce the frequency of cleaning your piercing but do keep in mind brushing your teeth is very important.

At this stage the piercing should be healed, but if not this may be a warning sign. This also indicates that you haven’t taken proper care of your tongue piercing.

If it is very painful to take anything in your mouth try to sip some liquids like soup or juice. Even if this is not easy for you due to swelling, try to sip using a straw.

After 1-2 days you’ll be comfortable enough to eat bland foods. Then start eating soft baby foods that are tasty too. Eat custard, yogurt, Applesauce, or pudding for variations for at least 10 days.
