i had my op yesterday.. iv have 2 tounge pericings. i just toom mine out about 30 mins before i went down and put it back in when i came round no problems at all went straight back in!
The anaesthetist told me i couldnt have any of my piercings in in my face. I spent money getting the plastic retainers to as i was told they would be ok but that was a waste of money. But all my piercings went straight back in no problem when i got back to my room xxx
