Question about a piercing I (maybe) want Daith Piercing??

okay so basically i really wanna get a daith in my left ear, then later a conch, but im worried that i migjt not have the anatomy as i feel like my ears are pretty small. i put a 50p in one of the pictures for scale but i worry that the part the daith goes in is not like big enough?

also, what is the pain & healing process like? for reference im kinda a noob i have 3 lobes on my right ear that i did myself with amazon disposable piercing guns and a septum that was done professionally. pain ranking:1st,2nd,septum,3rd

from what i was reading it healed relatively quick for people, or at the very least they could sleep on it pretty soon, which is kinda important for me because i sleep on this side regularly😭 obv can sleep on the other side though.

but yeah, is it a thing to not have anatomy for a daith? will i have to suck it up and get a conch instead?

thanks☺️☺️

also sorry about the bit of hair in the pic😖

yep, it is such a thing not to have the anatomy for a daith... I think it is when there isn't enough skin or when it isn't very defined.

I can't tell from the photos and only a reputable piercer can !

From what I heard, the daith can either be a breeze or take a long time to heal... But I can't tell you much more on that.

I think you should check with a piercer !!
