Cartilidge..
I got my top cartilidge pierced in June 2004, and my bottom cartilidge one around August 2004. It says you have to keep the earring in for 3 months and you can change it. I got hoops from Claires and I just put them in about 3 days ago. I've been having ear pains ever since, on and off. Do you think it's just because I have to get used to it? Because when I sleep I tend to roll on them, so that's whats causing the most pain I think. Or do you think they're just damaging my ear? Thanks for any help.

well i got my cartilidge peirced in September and its been 3months for me. But when i got mine peirced they said that you cant wear hoops for a whole year. Which im really bummed bc i got hoop earings for my cartilidge for christmas but maybe thats why your ears are hurting so bad. I dont personally see why hoops are so much different then studs but i guess they tell you not to wear them for a reason. Hope i helped =)

selectopaque gave some pretty good advice. It most likely is the material the earrings are made of, you could be allergic to them.
It could just be the shape of your earrings though. I find I have trouble sleeping with anything but a stud in. You could try sleeping without your earrings in, or if you are worried about your holes closing up, put the original earrings your ears were pierced with in at night, and the hoops in during the day.

You should probably start to clean it with a piercing solution about once a day until it feels better.
It could be many different things. The hoops could have been a different type of metal. In that case, your skin will need to get used to that type of metal, just as it did when you first got them pierced. Your skin needs to adjust to each foreign object that you put inside it.
It could also be that the hoops are a different gauge than your previous earrings. If they're smaller, then your ears will need to re-form over the smaller size holes. In that case, it will almost be like they have to heal all over again.
It's pretty much the same case if the earrings you put in are a larger gauge.
Either way, just use the solution once in a while and keep it clean. You should be fine after a while.

maybe the skin and cartilidge of your ear were forming around the earing (which is not good) and when you pulled it out it irritated the ear. don't worry, it's good that you took it out. but if the pain is just to much for you, you need to take your new earing off too. but not too long, or your skin may grow over.
good luck
