Neither one would initially be more painful...but while healing, if the jewelry does not allow enough room for swelling it will cause it to be more painful.

A barbell isn't the best option for a healing piercing, go with a CBR. Is the better option for a healing piercing. Plus it's easier to clean when you have a CBR.

it makes not difference, its the needle that pierces you, not the jewelry, but i suggest the cbr, its much easier to take care of

neither will be more painful, but a CBR will be easier to clean.
