Ear piercing question?


Question:
Hey guys, I'm getting my cartilage RE-pierced...
I'm terrified of needles, the feeling the needle in me just makes me sick... Does anyone know of a way to... numb my ear or do something to alleviate the pain?

Answers:
First of all, piercings are just a small pinch from a needle, so it probably isn't the pain you should be worried about. If you really want this done and the pain is unbarable, buy some topical anesthetic (probably Oragel (sp?) or some other type of cream to put on babies' teathing gums but consult with your piercer and/or doctor, because you are going to push some of this gel into the hole when the needle goes in and it may cause infection.
Try orajel - it's a tooth medicine for babies. Rub a whole bunch on your ear. That should do the trick.
b4 u go and get it pierced, get some numbing cream from your local chemist because the piercing place probably wont provide this.
If your old enough take a couple of shots YAK!
