Question for the ladies...



Recommended Posts

Is anyone having problems wearing a bra? One of my incisions falls right under my bra line. I tried wearing a jock bra today and it felt so tight and uncomfortable, I had to take it off. I have to go back to work tomorrow and I don't think I can fake it and get away without wearing a bra.:unsure: I don't know what else to do! I'll take any suggestions!:ohmy:

I have the same problem too. It falls right where the middle of my bra rests. Today was my first day back to work and I had surgery on 4/21, so I think I had enough time to heal to where it didnt really bother me. I was very aware of it though.

Maybe try and cover it with some thick gauze?

I have an incision in the same place. It didn't really bother me too bad though. I did go out and buy a couple front closure bra's I dont know if thats why it didn't hurt or not. My surgery was on the 22nd and that incision is now healed over. Hopefully it won't be but a few days. Maybe if you get a front closure, you can not "close" the bottom hook so it wouldn't rub?????

I had the same problem and I just kept pushing the front middle of my bra (where the incision was) down all day so it wouldn't be resting right on the incision. That worked for me...

I happened to have one bra that didn't hit that incision spot. It was a front closer.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
