A member asked:
Is kissing someone with a tongue ring dangerous? can i catch anything? they're had it for 10 years.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infection risk: Should not be any higher than kissing without a tongue ring - i.e. you can get cold viruses or herpes, but the ring per se, does not increase these risks.
