Anyone got a conch or rook piercing?

[Mimsykins]

Morning!

I've got the piercing bug back wanted to add some piercing to my ears. I've got lots in my cartilage and recently had my tragus done, which hurt a lot more than I had anticipated! Wondering if anyone has tragus/helix plus a conch or rook and tell me if they're comparable pain wise?

Thank you!

I’ve two in my left conch and a tragus. Apart from the initial pain of the piercing they were fine. Conch was tougher but with a good piercer you’ll be fine. Just do the breathe out as they pierce.

I struggled to sleep on my left side for a while after each conch was done. But other than that it was fine.

My healing technique is “leave it the hell alone” and occasionally soak with water/dab with tea tree if it’s minging. I’ve got/had about 16 piercings.

I've, within the last year, got my conch, helix, flat, rook, tragus & daith done.
I found my Tragus no more painful than my lobe, although it took ages to heal because I kept battering it.
Conch was sore (so I thought) but then I got my rook done. It was really sore and I couldn't touch it for a week. I then got worried about it being infected as, even though I was spraying it twice a day, the bit I could see looked gungy, so I went at it with a cotton bud & saline spray & it was much less sore.

I have a Piercing Pillow I got off amazon. Absolute game changer.

I've also got one of those mini camera things off Tik Tok for going in your ear that I've been using to check my daith as I can't see it.

I have my conch, tragus, daith and anti-tragus. The conch was fine, I couldn't sleep on that side for about a week but it settled down beautifully.

Found conch to be the most painful. Tragus felt like pressure rather than pain and took was probably lowest pain. Tragus has been my hardest to heal

DD has all of them. I think she says conch was the most painful but she’s had so many now, she doesn’t notice!

Conch was a sharp pain that was over quickly and was the easiest of all my ear piercings including basic lobes. It’s inside your ear so doesn’t affect or get irritated by sleeping on it. Honestly never felt any pain from it at all after the initial piercing.
