Vest Chafing: Was wondering has anyone here faced chafing/friction irritation due to compression garment? Currently post op day 8 and I can see visible chafing around the axilla and upper abdomen where the strap sits. I am wearing a vest inside the garment to have less chafing and yes it has helped in not giving me new irritation but what can I do for the already existing chafing? Does it heal on its own as time goes by?
It may be helpful to wear a rashguard under the vest if it is causing chaffing in the arm hole areas. Check out MMA rash guards on Amazon.
