Isn't the human body an amazing organism!? Its ability to heal itself is truly incredible!
For instance, our tongue.
Recently, I bit mine so hard and cut it so deeply with a molar, it took weeks to heal completely. It bled and it throbbed. I wasn't sure my tongue would recover fully.
This incident got me thinking how bizarre it'd feel to have, like many 20-somethings, a studded tongue. A foreign object, no matter what or where it's located on the body, is considered an invasive object.
But I suppose, after the initial incision heals, it's like all other boo-boos. It closes up and fades away to the point where one would never know it's there.
Still, that may be fine for others; as for me, I'll remain stud-free.
