I have mild discomfort around where my bra fastens. I also have a hiatal hernia. After eating noon meal it worsens and I must loosen bra. Also stomach swelling. I do have an ileostomy but not sure what is causing this discomfort. Not awful but very uncomfortable around bottom of bra and waistline.

I stopped wearing underwire bras during covid. Wish I did it sooner. Belly bloat has always been a problem for me. I rarely wear trousers or jeans except for dress. Just turned 75 and thinking comfort is so important to keep me from being cranky.

I have similar discomfort from the bra and at my waistline. I avoid wearing bras when I’m home. I also try to use pants with elastic waistband or ties.
I have bloating all the time and will have it checked soon.
Since you have a hiatal hernia you can ask your doctor if it causes your discomfort after eating or if something else causes it.
