Tips for Excision
Hello SkinCancer.net community,
I recently had a scrape biopsy on a mole that is directly under my bra clasp on my back. It wasn't bad but it turns out I have to now get the mole excised and I'm a bit nervous about not being able to wear a bra while it heals or having pain from the bra, etc.
Wondering if anyone has had to deal with it and if you have any suggestions for me. I know it might feel like a silly thing to think about in the scheme of things but it's what's worrying me at the moment. Any advice would be appreciated!
Hi
, I'm sure this is a common concern! Optimizing healing and minimizing pain are certainly top priorities. I look forward to hearing what the community has experienced. Perhaps you can come back with some tips of your own too! - Nina, SkinCancer.net Team 
Every situation is different, but my surgeon told me to wear a sports bra for 2 months while my wound healed. My excision surgery was on the chest. The issue for me was that I didn’t feel very feminine, attractive in a sports bra every day.
