I got my tongue pierced, and now it's infected, and I'm terrified it will grow huge and deform my mouth, or spread to my brain, or any of those other horrible possibilities. The infection is very small, maybe a large pin head? (o <- about that) Please give me advice on how to keep my tongue, and hopefully the piercing too. My piercer said she can either remove it now, while it's still small, or i can try washing it twice a day with sea salt, which is supposed to be a very good healer, and washing out with listerine at least 6 and hopefully 8 times a day. She says I should see results within a week, the sea salt is that quick, but I'm still so very nervous. If there is anything more that I can do, tell me :} Seeing a doctor isn't really an option.
