    hey right before i got mine done, everbody and their mother told me hurt,
    but everyone pain factor is different.
    so i amped my self up for pain
    and well if u got ur cartlidge peirced that is pretty much the pain, just a quick like sensation. what hurt more was when he was putting in the earing and he was twistin n pullin n tuggin to get the ball on,.
    to heal, eh i would say at least a good month, i kno i couldn't answer the phone or sleep on that side for a lil bit, but at least a good month, but i would take the earring out until prolly a good 4-6 months after it was peirced,
    hope that helped some

    My tragus piercing has been the fussiest piercing I've had to date.
    I think every person's body reacts differently to different parts of their body being pierced.
    I have my conch pierced, and everyone I've talked to has said it was the worst piercing healing wise. But mine healed up in just a few weeks(though the piercer said it would take 6-8months). And it is the hardiest piercing I've ever had as well. I closed the car door on my head...and it didn't get irritated at all.

    What is a "conch" piercing and what is an "industrial" piercing?

    my tragus grinded and crunched on the way through. it then was infected for about 6 months. now its great, I've had it for 2 years and I love it so much that I took out all of my other 11 peircings except for my tragus. DO IT crunchhhhhh

    i got my tragus pierced almost a year ago. it barely hurt, just a pinch. they just had me lay down and the guy cleaned my ear and put a clip on and manually put it through. i swear i could fully rotate the earring the next day. seriously. the guy did an amazing job. what i suggest is to get recommendations for a tattoo shop or piercing place that is known to be very sterile and serious about their work. thats what I did and i ended up with amazing results.

    does anyone know how long it can be in without putting a permanent hole in my ear?
