I have wanted to get my tongue split for about five years, but I have horrible chronic canker sores. These canker sores can come from something as minor as eating too much hard candy.

I was wondering if there was any way to reduce the potential for getting canker sores during the healing, or if I should just scrap the idea entirely.

Thank you!!

No one really knows what causes canker sores, but medical professionals have decided that any sort of stress, trauma or chemical imbalance in can trigger them.

I would imagine that a big injury like a tongue split could definitely trigger some cankers, but I reckon that the large wound caused by cutting your tongue in half would likely distract you from the discomfort of a canker sore, nor would having a canker sore have any bearing on the healing.

After the split is healed, it’s just like a normal tongue. …but split! You can get canker sores all over the surface of it just as before.
