it feels like hell. the tape that i use (no matter what kind of tape) to keep the guaze over my nipples irritates my skin so much. i’ve even tried the big bandaid patches instead and it still irritates me. the fact that im going over the same general spot over and over again does not help. i’m a little allergic to some adhesives to begin with so it just feels like hell cuz my skin on my chest is always in pain. it even is ripping off a little skin sometimes, anyone have any tips?

just wanna say that some people on here ( emphasis on some, a lot of people here are so sweet and amazing and uplifting) but SOME people feel way too entitled commenting on other people’s body’s. if you don’t have something nice to say, scroll and don’t fucking say it! it’s as simple as that! i swear some people do not get how impactful someone’s words can be even online. some people i don’t think are aware that they’re being completely inappropriate and insensitive by some of the things they say. i saw someone posting the other day about if their surgeon left extra tissue or not but they were only about a month or so post op (can’t remember exactly) so very very well could still be swelling and probably was and someone was commenting something like “wow im so sorry but it really looks like you have just small boobs i would def contact your surgeon” or something like that. like wtf??? honestly??? this person could’ve never had top surgery before and not know about swelling and now the OP could be freaking out and thinking everyone thinks that’s about them for the next like 5 years. i also think that some people think they’re experts on medical shit just because they got top surgery. please please please if you have a medical emergency or question, sure this can possibly be a good place to get some reassurance but you’re not gonna know anything until you talk to your surgeon. even someone giving you the advice from their surgeon is not a good enough answer because every surgeon does things different. LIKE JUST STOP TALKING NEGATIVELY ABOUT OTHER PEOPLES BODYS AND STOP GIVING OUT INVALID MEDICAL ADVICE!?!?!?!? ITS NOT THAT HARD
