i did have mine done. i don't think it hurt that much when i had it done. i did get a lump around the piercing on the front for a little while (but i have had that with all cartelidge piercings - must just be me!) but it went after a little while (and it didn't hurt).

my jewellery fell out one night & instead of replacing it, i decided to retire it. it didn't cause me any major problems or pain though while i did have it
