Could a bra help heal swollen breasts after cancer?

NCT ID NCT06303154

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study is testing whether a special compression bra, called Mobiderm Intimate, can safely reduce breast swelling (edema) that often happens after breast cancer surgery and radiation. Thirty women who had breast-conserving surgery will wear the bra day and night for three weeks, then as tolerated for up to six months. Researchers will track changes in swelling and symptoms using a questionnaire and a device that measures tissue fluid.

What this could lead to
If it works, this bra could offer a simple, non-drug way to ease breast swelling and discomfort after breast cancer surgery.
