Yesterday I decided to change things up a bit. I ordinarily wear my underworks 997 as a full length. It doesn't bind amazingly since I'm in between sizes and chose something a bit larger instead of a bit smaller. I flipped the bottom up causing it to be 4 layers of compression on my chest. I only wore it for maybe a total of an hour and when I took it off I realized how much my ribs hurt. My ribs are still sore today but it's not as bad. Has this happened to anybody else?

Don't mean to interfere, but I hope you don't do that again.

Probably too tight when you did that.
yeaahhh.. I managed to do that with bandages (yes bad I know - I can't get a freaking PO box without a photo ID) and had trouble breathing for a week because my ribs hurt that much. [yeaahhh guess who wasn't binding the rest of that week]
Don't do that again

no it doesn't.
gotta love that paranoia. I bet no one notices the difference except the person wearing it.
you're better off not going so tight and remembering that people aren't as observant as we give them credit for

I don't know. I get seen as female if I bind and don't bind. The binder itself is a little big but when doubled up it's too much.
