Seeming painful? ( A pierce through the nose)

I want to know how we can express the situation when we saw a person take a "big" pierce on his/her nose. In fact I met a guy whose nose was cut through by a gig pierce like a picture.( I was able to search for many other pictures, however I am not able to post other than this.:) )
I thought いたそう! when I saw him. In such a situation, can I say(to myself) below phrases?
I want to say " I felt that he should feel painful with the pierce through his nose. "
And I want to cut the phrase shorter as possible as we can naturally. OK?
Ah, of course, I will never point my finger to him/her while saying it.
・Seeming painful
・Painful
・His nose seems painful
Or any other your recommendation, please tell me. Thank you.

I want to know how we can to express the situation when where we saw see a person take get (also, maybe "have", depending on context) a "big" piercing in his/her nose.
In fact I met a guy whose nose was cut through by a big piercing like in the a picture.( I was able to search for many other pictures, however I am not able to post more than this.:) )
In such a situation, can I say(to myself) the below phrases?
I want to say " I felt that it he should feel be painful with the piercing through his nose.
And as much as possible I want to cut shorten the phrase. shorter as possible as we can naturally.
"It seems painful having that piercing in his nose."
Or,
"I feel like having a nose-piercing like that would be really painful"
Also, in Japanese it's called "pierce", but in English it's a "piercing". :)
To tell you the truth, I hoped that I would get a short phrase because I am not saying a long phrase in a short second. However, such a phrase seem to be more long than I expected. :)
I want to know how to express the way I feel when I see someone with a big piercing in his/her nose.
In fact, I met a guy who had a nose piercing like the one in the picture. (I found many other pictures, however, I am not able to post any of the other ones./I could only post this one:) )
I want to say "I felt/thought (more commonly used than 'felt' in this type of situation, I think) (that) his nose piercing must be painful."
And I want to use as short a phrase as I can and still sound natural.
Ah, of course, I will never point my finger at him/her while saying it.
・Seeming painful ---I would probably just say "It looks painful." "Nose piercings look painful!" "I saw a guy with a nose piercing. It looked really painful."
・His nose seems painful ---This sounds a little strange.
Or, if you have any other your recommendations, please tell me.
'Seems painful' isn't really wrong, but it doesn't sound natural. It would be more natural in this kind of situation: you watch someone get a piercing (鼻を貫通する時), later you tell someone about it and say, "I saw him get his nose pierced. It seemed painful." This implies that the person who got the piercing felt pain during the piercing. But, if you say, "It looked painful" it means that YOU thought it would be painful, though maybe HE didn't think so.
Hope that makes sense....?

I often get asked if my lip-ring hurts. People will say, "Doesn't that hurt?" while pointing to their lips.
