Belly/tragus piercing question..? Those with experience? :)?

Okay so im the same age as you and i got my belly done about 3 weeks ago and to be honest it didnt really hurt thaaaat bad, it just stung when the needle went through my skin cause the needle is so so sharp, and after that it hurt for like an hour and stopped hurting till like the second week when it actually starts its healing process. And about the tragus piercing, my sister got that done about 2 months ago and she said it hurt more then her tongue piercing and her nose piercing because its such thick cartilage, but just like any other piercing it will only hurt for a little bit and then stop hurting, i hope this helped! :)
