I was debating whether I should get my tongue pierced on Wednesday but I have a friends get together on Saturday night. I'm wondering if I should wait till afterwards or if it's ok to drink beer a couple of days after??

No, you're supposed to wait at least one week...two to be safe. Otherwise it is likely that you will get a yeast infection in your mouth (since the piercing hasn't healed). Ewe :oP It would be best to wait and get it done later, unless you want to be DD that night!

Its not good to drink with a fresh piercing, because the yeast in beer will infect it. My girlfriend just got her lip pierced, and on her paper on how to keep it clean, you shouldnt drink, have oral sex, or smoke. If u do make sure you disinfect throughly. You can do what you wanna do after the healing process is over, which is 6 wks.

No. You need to wait a month before drinking any alcohol. The yeast in the beer can give you a yeast infection in the piercing hole.

When i got mine done it was swollen for over a week but i could comfortly drink non-acidic foods, beer would probably be fine. My sisters tongue didn't swell at all and she had no sensitivity, so i guess everyones different.

It's like saying if you were to pour something poisonous on a open wound... let it heal, what's there to lose?
Actually you can drink beer, but with a straw... but that is an awfully weird way to do so...

of course you can.. beer is alcohol and alcohol is one type of antiseptic.. while you drinking you are also 'clean' your tongue.. i knew it because i learn microbiology..
