Just wondering if any of you girls are struggling with the breast band like me, not just the fact that it’s so annoying now it’s brought me out in loads of horrible spots. I naturally have spot prone skin and have some cream from the doctors but it looks so bad even when I get my breast band off and in normal bras I won’t be able to wear anything low cut until the spots have cleared 🙁 🙁
Oh no Emily that’s awful! I’m in straps and so itchy and uncomfortable too! It’s digging into my armpits. Aloe gelly may help hun. Hope it settles. How much longer did they say you need to keep it on for?xx
Maybe take some antihistamines Hun that might help x
Try wearing or putting somthing under the band ! Maybe try some icepacks on them aswell ! Hope it gets better soon xxx
I’ve got the breast band too it was digging in under my arm pits so I’ve put a kids sock on each side to stop the rubbing lol. I’ve got another 3 weeks of it 🙁 don’t have a clue what il be wearing for the durationxx
@xxbiiancaxx @ellie12 @ellie2015 @alicemck97 thanks for your suggestions girls I’ll try them all! Have to keep it on for a total of 30 days and I’m only on day 8 so got ages yet xxx
Good luck let me know if anything works ! Hope you find something xxx
@alicemck97 thanks I will I’ve put a top on underneath for now xxx
Maybe try washing it if you can? Even hand wash it with your usual powder might be aggravating your skin and need softening up or something I don’t know ? Hope it doesn’t cause that for me, I’ve seen a few posts like this before. Hope it heals up xx
You can get like big cotton pads either rugby ball shaped or square. Place them underneath your breast band. I was like crying before I did that and now I don’t even notice it that much only when I’m trying to breathe lol!! It also stops me feeling all tacky. I then take it off at end of day and pop some cleanser on the pads, clean the area and place new ones on xx
@georginaoneill oh thank you I’ll give that a go too!
@ellie2015 I had dr Andrea
Xx
