Silly Question
I don't know who to ask but after removal of milk ducts can I wear a bra straight away as I would be very uncomfortable with the other breast if this is not possible.

My lumpectomy scar is on the outer bottom corner of my right breast, right where the seam of most bras sit - ouch!
The most comfortable bras that I found are sold in Target. They are front hooking post surgical bras, very soft and the side seam is approximately 2 cm away from my scar.
They are so very comfortable I am still wearing them 2 years post surgery. The bra sizes are 12 to 22 in a cup range of B to D. They have a pocket for a prothesis if required.
I found that after surgery I could not fasten back hooking bras, my right arm would not cooperate.
My only "whinge" about them is that the straps are not adjustable (not really a problem) and they look like "granny" bras!!!
