My compression garment causes a severe back ache and abdominal pain while lying down. Is it ok if I only wear it during the day?

Asked By:Lanettess in Church Hill, Tennessee

I had abdominal lipo Friday the 3rd of Jan. I have a raging rash around the trunk of my body and the compression garment causes a severe back ache and abdominal pain while lying down. Can I sleep without compression garment? Will it effect my results if I only wear it during the day while being active?
