ok i am 8 days post op. i have noticed some redness around my breast, mostly right, now started on left. no swelling or fever. i think it may just be from my bra. could it be too tight? i wore a 36 before BA, so i bought a 38 and 40, but they both seem the exact same on. should i get a bigger one, can this just be from the bra. it is red/pink almost everywhere the bra is touching, but not bright or painful. you can tell where the bra hasnt touced, not pink.

I wore a 36/38b pre BA, and right after my surgery I wore a 44d.......yikers I know.....but the 40/42 killed me. Now I back down to a 38dd......... So as long as their not HOT and you have no fever, I would try the next size up.

thank you so much, i am going now. i have been so confused on how tight vs how loose it should be, i talked to a nurse at my PS office on fri, and she said you want it to support, but not too much, so they can drop, so idk. thanks again im gonna go get one now.
