No, this is something you wear once you're healed and have lymphedema or breast fibrosis and under the care of the physical therapist who orders it (at least mine put in an order for it).

I’ve been given a swell spot from my lymphedema specialist for an area of fibrosis in my breast following a lumpectomy. Now I’m in radiation and wondering if it’s advisable to wear it during radiation. Thoughts? I’ll check in with my docs, but was wondering if anyone had continued using a swell spot during radiation. Thanks!
