No, it doesn't. I had my midway done (the lower cartilage right above the lobe) and it really didn't hurt that bad. It has taken only about 6 weeks and it was easy to take care of.

Does it hurt when you get your cartilage pierced?
It really doesn't hurt very bad. But when its pierced you will hear a good "pop" or "crunch" sound (which most piercing junkies like myself think is funny) My advice though is to make sure to have it pierced in a tattoo or piercing parlor which uses one use sterilized needles NOT a piercing gun. It will hurt less and heal much, much better. What most shops that use piercing guns probably wont tell you is that the gun is actually not intended for any piercing other than lower lobe.
Does it hurt when you have your tragus pierced?
Not really. It's all a matter of how high your pain tolerance is really. It shouldn't hurt more than an ordinary cartilage piercing. Just make sure it's done with a needle and not with a piecing gun.
How do you know if your ear cartilage is cracked after having it pierced with a gun?
The best way to tell if your ear cartilage is cracked after having it pierced, is to feel it. If you feel a gap or if it is very sore weeks after, it might be cracked.
Where can you get your upper ear done with a gun?
Any body piercing shop or tattoo shop that offers piercing services or Claire's. But, I have to say, it is preferable to get your cartilage pierced with a needle because a gun can shatter your cartilage.
What could cause the cartilage of your ear to hurt?
Okay so if you have your cartilage pierced, some things could be it's infected because when you slept, your ear rubbed against whatever you were sleeping on and that could be it or you could have not cleaned it well with whatever you chose or whatever your piercer told you to clean it with. Another could be that the piercer didn't sterilize the needle or gun he/she pierced it with. If it's not pierced then you could have bumped it against something and now its sore.
Does getting your cartilage pierced hurt with a needle?
it depends on your pain tolerance! a bunch of my friends do them on their own. they numb it with ice then stick the needle through! i just got 2 done with a gun...it's faster and less scary!
DOes it hurt to get your cartledge pierced?
I just got my cartilage pierced at Claire's in October with a gun. It didn't hurt 1 bit!!! I was actually embarrassed when it was over cause I was like freaking out, thinking it was gunna hurt really bad, but it didn't Now i can put whatever stud i want in it and it looks soooo good!!! But the only bad part is the after pain, Like for the next couple of days, when you lay on it, it hurts like a b****!!!
After several months of having the upper ear cartilage pierced it still hurts. Is there supposed to be a small dent where the stud has been?
Pain and discomfort are part and parcel of getting the cartilage pierced with a piercing gun. The piercing gun user knows that they are not allowed to pierce ear cartilage with a piercing gun. Properly done cartilage piercing done by a professional body piercer would have been healed by now. The swelling is due to the stud backing being too close to the skin and not allowing the piercing to drain or breath properly.
How long does it hurt to get the top of your ears pierced?
Well if it's done by a professional body piercer, the discomfort will be very short lived maybe a bit tender off and on for a few hours. Done with a piercing gun the discomfort can be several days long, because the piercing gun is not meant to be used to piercer ear cartilage, nor is the stud designed for be used in cartilage piercings.
Does it hurt when you pierce your nose with a gun?
* My nose was pierced with a gun and it didn't hurt at all but then again people tell me that you shouldn't have anything pierced with guns. * I had the needle done, and it hurt like hell, but it is supposedly the healthier way to do it.
Just got the skin right where the lobe turns into the cartilage pierced ears have always rejected cartilage piercing maybe they snipped a piece of cartilage sightly red and a little swollen?
If the piercing was done with a piercing gun then that should answer the question.
