You should always follow the instructions of the surgeon who is providing your care. That said, I instruct my patients to wear a sports bra day and night for one month following their breast augmentation. The bra can be removed briefly to shower.
The recommendation for support following BA is to wear a compression band for 2 weeks and a support bra for one month. I then switch patients to a regular bra.
The question regarding the use of bras is surprisingly common on this website; there is no “standard” when it comes to the use of specific bras or garments after breast surgery.

This surgical bra, although not attractive, is supportive and used for about one month after surgery (some of my patients have been known to burn the bra ASAP). Then, patients transition to a soft sports bra. Wired bras are used when breast implants have reached their “final position” and patients have full sensation along the breast skin. Best wishes.
This is a question you need to ask your PS as we all have different protocols. If you find the compression bra uncomfortable you may want to try a padded sports bra without any underwire.

Thanks for your question. From what you say and your photos, I would definitely recommend a breast lift first. I suspect that with a lift you would be around a C-cup. Proper sizing requires careful neasurements and planning and I would think it risky to make a decision based on...
I am sorry to hear what happened. You should be evaluated in person by your plastic surgeon to make sure there is no hematoma or other problem caused by the hug. No online advice will be as good as a visit to your doctor. Best wishes.Below is general information on breast...
