I finally sucked it up and got my tragus and my conch pierced. Both are on my left ear. The pain wasn't unbearable more so uncomfortable really. But not too bad. lol I had a huge adrenaline rush afterwards, which is weird because I don't remember getting a rush after my other piercings.

I need advice on cleaning it and checking the balls to make sure they aren't loose. My ear has deep dips where the piercings are and my fingers can't really grasp the ends of it to check the balls. What's some advice or tips for this. Also, I'm currently using saline spray and spraying it on both sides of the outside of my piercings and then using a cotton swab and letting it air dry to dry it. Is there an easier way to clean them?

Last but not least, since I was pierced I've had a slight headache and ear ache on that side, would it be okay if I took Advil to help ease the pain?
