Can you tell me the risks in having my tongue and nipples pierced.

Well, starting with the tongue: as you can imagine, having a piece of metal constantly rattling against your teeth and gums can cause major problems from chipped teeth through to gum disease and gum recession. Food can also get trapped around the stud. By the way, dentists tend to hate mouth piercings because of the damage they cause. Nipple piercings can also have downsides. In women, there is a risk of scarring to the milk ducts, which may interfere with breastfeeding. With any piercing there is also the small risk of trauma: through the stud or ring getting caught on clothing, for example. Anyone considering piercing should also only get it done through an experienced, reputable practitioner. Needles should be used once only, and other equipment should be autoclaved to prevent the transmission of blood-borne infections like HIV or hepatitis C. Other risks from the procedures can include infections, bleeding or damage caused by incorrect ring/stud placement. For more detailed information, I suggest you talk to your GP. Even given the risks of these piercings, many people feel they are still worth it. And, at least with body piercings (unlike more permanent adornments like tattoos), when you get sick or them or you run into problems, you can just take them out.
