6 weeks post op tumescent lipo/TT, but still have a lot of swelling. Should I stop wearing my compression garment if it hurts?

I would discuss this issue with your surgeon. Your garment should be snug, but not hurting "so MUCH." Your garment may be too tight. Not all surgeons use garments, so ask your surgeon about their specific recommendations.

Thank you for your questions. I believe I have answered some of your previous questions. Usually the compression garment is helpful and you should wear it for as long as your plastic surgeon has instructed you. There is no standard on this, so before you stop wearing it, you should discuss with your plastic surgeon and make sure it is ok.Good luck!

As replied, consult your plastic surgeon for advice and recommendation.  If you continue to have swelling, the use of compression is still helpful.  It sounds like you need a better fitting garment and would benefit from a 'department store' girdle that you can try on and assure that it fits snugly but comfortably.  A trick that I recommend to patients is to put a layer under the garment such as a tank top, camisole, etc.- that can make the garment much more comfortable.
