Hi there!
I'm thinking about getting tragus piercing for weeks, but I can't decide if I really want, because I'm afraid of hurt. How does it hurt for you?
Thank's a lot!:)

Yes, it HURTS, but how much depends on your own tolerances.

The actual piercing process does not hurt because there are little to no nerve endings in the area. I just had mine pierced on Jan 16th. The day I got the piercing I felt no

The actual piercing process does not hurt because there are little to no nerve endings in the area. I just had mine pierced on Jan 16th. The day I got the piercing I felt no pain. However, for about 2 weeks after I got the piercing, I experienced some pain in the area after cleaning and some mild swelling. I was at a point where I thought I should take it out, but I spoke with someone else who told me the same thing happened to them and it was fine. You are not supposed to turn the piercing after cleaning and I was doing this which caused the swelling. Now for about a week my ear has been fine and I turn it with no pain or discomfort. You also can't sleep on your side when you get it so if you're a side sleeper you should only get one at a time.
