I have six of them! It is GOOD to rotate them. It keeps scabs from building up. Usually like a walmart will do it. But in some states (like Ks) you have to go to a piercing/tattoo salon to get cartilage piercings.
They hurt for a few weeks. They are usually done with a 20 or 18. the larger the number, the smaller the hole.
Whoever does the piercing should give you instructions for after care.

I use to work as a liscensed piercer i did cartilage piercings all the time but i used a gun to do them. The pain all depends on how far up you go the further the more pain although when i did get mine done it just stinged for a few seconds then it turned numb the amount of time they take to heal is crazy mine was sore for about a month.It is not bad to twist them it is recommended that you do twist them twice daily while cleaning them. good luck
