NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. Over the counter numbing creams and analgesics are NOT sterile and should not be rubbed on your skin before you jam a hollow needle through your skin. If it hurts it is taking you WAAAAAAY too long to get the needle through your skin. STOP. Go to a professional piercing parlor and have it done correctly or it's just going to grow out or reject anyway or worse.

It is not safe to pierce something yourself. Ears, nose, lips, bellybutton, everything should be done by a professional or you could mess something up by accident.
