Hey,
I am 10 days PO I had my strapping off on Monday and my skin tore when it was ripped off , it’s so sore ? Will I be ok to leave my macom off for a day to let it dry out an scab over because my bra is irritating it and making it worse ?
Hi Alysha, I was told by my nurse that you can leave the bra off for several hours in the day, the most important thing is that you sleep in it! You could go to chemist and see if they have any cream that’ll speed up the healing! Xx
I’m 10 weeks PO ..I don’t think it will do your breast any harm if you don’t wear your Macon bra for a day . I took my bra off every day for 30 mins , and my boobs were fine . At my 6 weeks post op assessment the nurse was pleased with my progress .
I would get yourself some bepanthem on that. That will heal it quicker. It’s found in the baby isle. Don’t get it on your insisions tho just where you’ve become sore from strapping that will soothe it straight away. X
I never even thought about bepanthem thank you!! Lucky I’ve got some here I’ve put some on now ☺️ & thank you! It’s so annoying because my op went so smoothly I’ve literally had hardly any pain and this has been the worst thing ? Xx
