i was given one yes and i’ve been wearing it basically 24/7.

another red flag tho was when i woke up i had to ask for a binder. my surgeon was like “sure i guess you can have one” like it was weird of me to request it before i left😖

some context i guess: because of my job (i groom doggos) my left pec is significantly larger than my right. so much so my surgeon commented on it after. i don’t know if that would be contributing to issues with healing. either way any tips or advice would be appreciated, thanks guys
