Answer: Excessive sharp pain with post op bra. Do I need to wear it? Thank you for your question. Your post-surgery garment should not be causing you such pain or discomfort. I would speak with your surgeon's office about either changing the garment size or finding a different garment that supplies similar support in order to keep you comfortable.

Answer: Excessive sharp pain with post op bra. Do I need to wear it? If your pain is relieved when you take off the bra, then it is likely too tight at least in that one area, and the symptoms are likely caused by a garment fitting issue. I would notify your plastic surgeon and let he or she know about the symptoms you are having and let he or she evaluate you clinically and see about whether you can leave it off or change it. Post operative swelling can be variable and sometimes will continue for the first few days after surgery, and the bra that you are using may be tighter now than when it was originally placed. I hope this helps!
