Answer #1

That depends on your pain tolerance - that are should not hurt anymore than a belly butten or ear piercing. It is just fat and skin they are going through - not cartlidge.

Answer #2

Doing a piercing on your own is fine, if you do it carefully and make sure everything is sterilized. That piercing should be really simple, since it’s just going through meat on top of your arm.

You have to make sure you use a proper piercing needle, make sure it’s brand new and clean, clean the are first with rubbing alcohol, and then push the needle through. Leave it for a minute, and then place the barbell in the hole.

Make sure you clean it with warm salt water very often. Since that are comes in contact with a lot of germs because it’s near your hands.

Answer #3

Answer #4

just because you can stick a needle through some skin doesnt mean you know what your doing a lot of kids go out and peirce things but really dont know anything about peircing getting it profesionally done would be best and be aware thats its a surface peircing and it will grow out the time it teakse to grow out depends on your body and how you take care of it it will grow out anywere from a few weeks-months to a few years so the peircing itself is not permanent but the scar it leaes will be and youll be lest with either and indent in your skin or a raised bit
