I bit off part of tongue right in middle and it bled a lot. The hanging piece, do i cut it off or what?

Question

i bit off part of my tongue right in the middle couple days ago.  i thought if i leave it alone, it will heal itself......but guess what, the part i bit off is still hanging from my tongue.  i thought it would heal itself back to my tongue but it didn't.  should i cut out the hanging piece?

you shouldnt joke about these things cause it could happen if it did happen you should go to dentist and have your teeth  filed down they are too sharp....then he will tell you what to do

Put some duct tape on it. I prefer crazy glue but it has a funny after taste that some don't like. If you don't have either, use paper clips or staples.

DO NOT CUT IT OFF!!! go and see a doctor asap because i am a SNA and if you dont get it looked at it will get infected and you could lose your taste buds.

Hopefully this is a joke, but just in case, no, don't. Go to a doctors' and get it stitched up.

NO! Go to a doctor for Christ's sake!
