A member asked:

Ive had my tongue pierced for nearly 3 years with not a single problem. what would be causing my lingual frenulum to feel too short or really tight? pain started 2 months ago. removing jewelry doesnt help. no visible sores, bumps, or trauma?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dentist: You may wish you see a dentist to ascertain if there is any issue with the frenulum. If need be the dentist or an oral surgeon could do a frenulectomy, an outpatient procedure, less complicated than tongue piercing. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV vaccine.
