Karen answered Sunday August 7 2005, 2:46 pm: If you get it professionally pierced, no, it doesn't hurt at all. It may get infected if you keep playing with it and not clean it. Some say that you should go into the ocean because it will sting but that never happened to me. You should probably get it pierced after you get back, since you could lose the ring.
