I had 325cc sub-pec 7 days ago and my sports bra (wearing a compression band too) has been really hurting me. It's not too tight for me but it's just the constant wear is making my tummy really hurt due to the bra pressing in the same place and I have to undo it sometimes for relief but only for a few minutes or so. Do I absolutely have to wear a sports bra constantly for 6 weeks? Is it going to affect the results if I take it off for a few hours here and there? I cant face 5 more weeks of this!
