Since the question isn't too specific as to which cartilage you mean, I'm going to assume you mean the ear, since that is the most common.
Ear cartilage piercings don't usually hurt very long, but as with all piercings, it depends on the upkeep and care. It also depends on how quickly you personally heal. The problem with these piercings is that they can be in an inconvenient place, especially if you have long hair. When you brush your hair, be careful that you don't brush over them. Also, when you sleep, depending on where the earring is on your ear, it could poke into your head, and be uncomfortable. But you soon get used to it and learn how to position yourself to sleep more comfortably.
I have 12 earrings in each ear, and I love them. You just have to be very mindful of care, and sanitary habits when it comes to any piercings that you might have. :)

How long does it take for conch piercings to close?

How bad do rook piercings hurt?
Any piercing will only hurt as bad as your pain tolerance will allow. If your pain tolerance is high, it may not hurt you. If its low, it may be a little uncomfortable. I can tell you that piercings through cartilage are a little more of a shock than other piercings. Its over within seconds, so you should be fine.
Do piercings ever fully close?
Depends on how long you have them, and what kind they are. Piercings in the cartilage, lip and ear lobe rarely close completely, they scar while new skin might grow over the hole, the cartilage remains shattered. Tongue piercings heal quickly, because the tongue is a muscle. Dermal piercings also heal better than cartilage, but can leave a scar.
If you have thick cartilage in your nose will it hurt when you get it pierced?
Nose piercings generally hurt regardless of the thickness of the cartilage, due to the fact the tear ducts are connected to the nose too. But it may take a bit longer, than someone who has thin cartilage, since the piercer has to push through a few more layers.

The sensation is a bit more intense because you are getting two piercings in one sitting and it's done with a needle not a gun. so it should be not too bad about the same as the cartilage piercing.
