i think i answered a similar question of yours but here you go:
he white part is normal. it's scar tissue and it will go away on its own. but if you seriously think its infected DO NOT TAKE THE TONGUE RING OUT! if you do it will close up an trap in the infection and will be much worse. leave it in a go see a doctor.

There are people I know who had their tongue pierced. They had to rinse 9 times a day to keep things in order.
You really need to take that thing out and see a doctor. The risks with tongue piercing are high. You don't want to know what life is like without all or part of the tongue. It gives trouble to talking, eating and swallowing if it is gone.
