How long have you had it?
If it's recently been done, it's normal.
Just make sure you're cleaning with diluted mouthwash [1 part mouthwash, 2 parts water]

Can you still see the ends? with a little room between the beads and your tongue?
If it's close to the bead ends, you might want to go back to the piercer and get them to give you a longer bar.

And the bar is surgical steel/titanium, not silver. [in colour, yes, but it's not actual silver] D:

She pretty much summed it all up there.

The bar being surgical steel is hypoalergenic so its a special type of metal that its very rare to be allergic to.

And also like she said, its very normal for your tongue to swell. Mine only swoll (sp?) a little while my friend could barely make words for the next 24 hours. But this usually only lasts a day (maybe two)
