HEEELLLPP!!!!

So am 4 weeks as of yesterday and am feeling better than i thought i would. My only issue is that i have unevenness on my stomach and i try to move the board to even it out. It does work but there are areas that i cannot put the board and those areas are uneven. I want my entire stomach to be even and straight. How do i fix this coz its really worrying me??. Also the area just below my boobs and where my stomach starts has a lump. Its a straight swollen thing. Looks like a thin sausage that just goes end to end under my boobs. I guess its coz thats where the garment ends and that area doesn't get any compression. Do any of u dolls have a better solution? If garments help, which ones should i use?

3 Weeks in.

So i was 3 weeks yesterday. Nothing has changed really apart from the fact that my butt is getting softer and that i can now bend lower than i did at week 2. Am having 2 major problems though. I feel as if am soo swollen around my stomach and back when i wake up. Almost like am on the verge of exploding. But as soon as i get out of bed into not soo hot air i feel normal again. The other issue is that my stomach is uneven. I have been using lipo boards and foams and i don't know if am wearing them wrong but it feels like one area is always different every time. Am still wearing my garment from surgery day even though I've tightened it abit . Am too scared to wear something tighter before am one month. I had bought a smaller garment that am planning to start wearing next week. Am thinking of ordering a cincher but don't know what it helps with??? Whats the difference between that and a tighter garment??

Am 2 weeks today.

The soreness is gone, i can laugh and cough without pain now but the itching has now kicked in. Its that good itch that u hate soo bad but love it at the same time coz it feels really good when u scratch it. Am still on my first garment and am planning to keep it until am one month. Dr.Fishers "Am your waist trainer" post on instagram about a week ago has made me change my mind about putting on a too tight garment before am one month. For those who haven't read it, he explains the function of the garment and that a tight garment can actually cause lipo burns, lines on the lipo:ed areas etc coz the garment does fold itself. This lines do stay permanently if one continues to use a too tight garment. on the other hand the garment one uses should be comfortably tight inorder to prevent serum for example. The nurses at Eres mentioned that too and i remember reading of a Hasan doll who got burns 2 weeks after her sx. Hasan made my boyfriend go buy a new garment on my surgery day coz the one i had bought would have been too tight. He just said that the one i had bought would be good later on but not during the first weeks. I dint think much about it and just assumed that it was coz i needed enough space for the padding.
Anyways, am having a hard time putting on shoes, bending, putting on socks, applying lotion and drying my legs after shower. Am hoping that will go away soon. Being without the garment feels weird. Am not kidding u, the garment becomes apart of you. Every time i remove it its like my skin is separating from whatever keeps it together with the rest of my body, its not a good feeling at all. Overall am happy so far, especially with my belly, Its like a runway Yáll, flat as it was meant to be!!!
