It's not too severe at this point, mild discomfort and slight misshape (a bit of flattening at the bottom of the breast) in left breast. I am massaging daily and doing chest exercises. My question is this, would it be better to wear a compression bra, or no bra at all to help things along. The breast feels much better when I wear a compression bra (relieves a bit of the discomfort); however, I am concerned that I am doing the opposite of what I should be doing by wearing a compression bra.
