I was playing ball today and cut my tongue so badly it looks pierced. I'm so hungry and I can't without it hurting. Has this ever happened to anyone else.
No and I hope it doesnt happen either, it's pretty painful. Once in 7th grade when I had braces, I was playing ball at lunch, and i went to block a guys shot and my upper lip hit his head...and my braces got stuck to my Lip...that was freakin painful. My lip was swollen for 2 weeks. Hope you feel better.

u may need stitches an infected mouth can lead to bigger problems than the pain of eating. get checked out.
Awww, that sucks. I've got hit on the head and have bit my tongue a few times, but not as serious as yours.

I remember one time when i was in like 4th grade i fell down some stairs and hit my lip on the railing and my tooth cut straight through my lip. I had to get like 16 stitches and luckily it didn't get infected but I've known people who have gotten infections after getting teeth pulled and whatnot and they've got to spit out puss all the time and they can't eat real food for weeks. Anyway just get it looked at and wash your mouth out with anti-bacterial mouthwash stuff after every meal so it doesn't get infected.

I had a badass cut by my gums once and it was incredibly painful. But it healed in like a week. Just gotta eat soft **** like pudding and yogurt and stuff... or just avoid your tongue somehow.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Run BJM:</div><div class="quote_post">Anyway just get it looked at and wash your mouth out with anti-bacterial mouthwash stuff after every meal so it doesn't get infected.</div> I'd also suggest getting a glass of water, pouring a fair ammount of salt into it, stir it up, then gargle/swish it around your mouth for about 30 seconds or so, it will help fight infection and salt is a natural healer, so it should help the healing process. You can do the same thing for mouth ulsas or any other cuts in your mouth.
I had this happen to me a few weeks aho. The Salt water is the best idea; even though itll hurt like hell itll heal the cut. Mouthwash also helps. What i reccomend is finding foods that dont irritate it, and drinking Carnation Instant Breakfasts whenever you are hungry but don't feel like hurting your tongue. Got me through the week or 2 it took to heal.
