The Tragus is a little prominent flap of skin and cartilage in front of the ear canal, this piercing is done by professional body piercers and should never be done by a piercing gun. To do so can lead to serious personal injury to the tissue and hearing.
The tragus is the small external lobe of flesh of the ear closest to the skull. It is located in front of the concha. This lobe is conventionally pierced with a captive bead ring. The tragus has no nerve endings but some piercers experience pain.
A tragus piercing is the piercing of the little bit that hangs out in the middle of your ear, in front.

Not really. It's all a matter of how high your pain tolerance is really. It shouldn't hurt more than an ordinary cartilage piercing. Just make sure it's done with a needle and not with a piecing gun.
Pain is relative. So theres really no definitive answer I can give you. They're both cartilage so they'll feel pretty similar but I imagine that the anti-tragus would be harder to heal. The rook is set farther back in your ear so you wouldnt hit it as much and it wont be as big of a deal to sleep on it :)

The opposite of the piercing, tragus ~ anti tragus, eyebrow ~ anti eyebrow.
No, it's part of your ear. http://www.knowyoursto.com/images/tragus-people.jpg
NO such thing as a reverse tragus. Do you mean an anti-tragus? Either way, a double tragus would probably seem to hurt more just because you would have to get two of them!They're both cartilage piercing and pretty much the same thickness. So its really hard to say for sure
After getting my Tragus pierced I waited until 2 months to change mine as it was still hurting , but when they change the bar in the Tragus it can be quite painful so just putting it out there and don't change jewelry in the Tragus when it's infected it really hurts
piecing shops..
All piercings have a chance to reject, but the tragus piercing is not likely to reject if done properly.
