Eat soup, ice cream...anything soft or liquid. Stay away from cereal, peas, corn anthing that resembles the end of your tongue ring (until it has completely healed...which is about a week) As for the pain, take ibuprofen it helps with the swelling and pain. Don't drink alcohol, or anything salty!
Good Luck!

oh the first few days are absolutely terrible. DONT USE STRAWS! thats the quickest way to an infection. I sucked on ice and only ate soup for like 3 days after

chew on ice, make sure and swish a lot! To eat, applesauce, ice cream, yogurt, juice, soup/broth or cream of anything. Good luck!

try some tylenol.. I would stick with soup intill it goes down.. my sister had to do that and make sure you clean it like they told you to or it will get infected.
