I really want to get one done and I would like it if someone could tell me how badly does it really hurt? During and after. I know everybody has different pain thresholds but on average? I'm just nervous to get it done but really want another piercing on my ears. I have my lobes and a cartilage on my right ear. How easy is it to clean? rate in numbers as well as a description. Thanks.
well when i got mine it really didn't hurt tht muchh the second hole hurt the most but only because i was thinking about it. andd it hurts more afterwards especially during the first few dayss if you hit it by accidentt. and cleaning it honestly is a pain, its annoyinggg but you have to do it, during the first few weeks clean it 3 times daily then you can start going down to two times daily. and do sea salt soaks and stufff anddd the actual piercing for me was about a 4 or a 5 (10 being painfulest) and the healing has been about a 5 or a 6 but i just got it done last weeek, if you really want it then get it,the pain is only temporaryy buttt its deff worth it in the end :)
Well of course it depends on the person. Some people say the piercing isn't bad at all, while some say it is really painful. Some people say the healing process is absolute hell, but for some people it's a breeze. I got an industrial 3 months ago, and i would rate the actual piercing process as a 8/10 (10 being the most painful). It was pretty painful in my opinion, but the good thing is that the pain doesn't last long at all. Most people i know who have industrials say that the healing process is more painful than getting the piercing, but for me it was the complete opposite. Immediately after the piercing it throbbed and was a tiny bit sore for about an hour, then for the next 2 days it was completely painless. But after that, it was pretty sore for about 2-3 weeks, but it wasn't that bad. Now after having it 3 months, it still feels a bit uncomfortable when i sleep on it, sometimes it's a tad bit sore, but no big deal at all :)
my experience was easy and fast. it was the next day waking up that kills you! keep in mind that its thick cartilage, but it is really worth it. you'll get used to it by like day 3 or 4 but and tug or pull will remind you of the pain. i recommend it!
My lip piercing did not harm in any respect. i've got not got an anti-tragus piercing, yet I do have a ordinary tragus piercing and that harm even under the lip. To be elementary, they are the two very tolerable. My navel piercing harm better than the two one in each of them.
When I got my industrial, it hurt more after wards. During the first week, it was a pain to sleep. Just make sure you clean it twice a day so it doesn't get infected.
