Women have been wearing bras for years. Maybe it is because
society feels that breasts look better being supported or maybe they feel more
comfortable with breasts that are lofty and vivacious. Of course, many women
will go to any length to make sure their breasts stay that way.
In some cases the bra size was measured incorrectly. A
frequent error is to overestimate the under-bust measurement of women with a
large bust. Many people are unaware that the weight of the breasts is not only
carried by the bra straps, but also by the under-bust band.
There were series of research that link breast cancer and
bras, women who wear a bra 24 hours per day have 75% chance of developing
breast cancer(3 out of 4). If they wear it more than 12 hours (but not during
sleep), this chance is 14.28% (1 out of 7). With less than 12 hours per day,
the breast cancer risk is dramatically decreased to 00.6%
Some of the symptoms are mainly shoulder/arm complaints;
tension across the shoulders and neck, headaches, cervical spine problems and
also back pain in the lower spinal region. Narrow, ill-fitting straps which cut
in can also irritate and put strain on the trapezius muscle and complex
structures of the shoulder joint. A well-fitting bra should not impede the free
movement of the shoulder blades. If a woman is experiencing problems in the
cervical spine region or shoulders, or suffers from chronic headaches and back
pain, her existing bras and measurements should always be checked to exclude
any potential problems
