Is my compression garment causing my pubic area to break out?

afzoom234May 16, 2014
I had liposuction on inner thigh, abdomen, and flanks and a Brazilian butt lift about two weeks ago. However, my garment is rubbing the skin around pubic area and it is causing the skin to peel off as well as a discoloration and mulitiple bumps. I was told to use hydrocortisone by the nurse but it does not seem to be any improvement? Any other advice
