You will be 4 days in at that point... Having your vest off for a few hours will not adversely affect your recovery progress. Compression is a good thing.... but it doesn't have to be 24/7.... It's all just common sense!.....  ;)

At 4 days out, I would recommend still wearing it if you can, as it will help decrease the swelling and discomfort. Taking it off for a couple hours, as Grandpa Bambu says, will not adversely affect your healing. But, it will be a little more sore and swollen if you remove it. I often recommend getting an under-armor type compression shirt (the ones that are usually worn to workout) for events like this. It is less bulky, and looks completely normal under sweaters and even a button up or polo shirt. It will not have the same quality of compression, but is better than nothing and is less noticeable. Many men wear them on a daily basis (even those without Gynecomastia).

Remember, be careful as well. You are not going to want to be partying too hard as your body is still going to be a little weak and needs time to recover to full strength. Have fun!

If you do plan to wear the vest, just say you have a sore back and the vest keeps your back straight and keeps the pain away. Ohh and by the way, what sport did your team win state? You're in Hawaii right?
If you have gyne, dont expect not be laughed at.

Just like if you walk into a locker room, you're gonna see some hairy asses and dicks.

Unfortunately for me, both have occured in my life way too many times.

Nice. My cousin lives in Hawaii and when my other cousin went down there he got to see some of the highschool players practice, he told me that they're Phuckin huge down there. Did you get to play against Farrington?

Of course, I won't talk about that to anyone. All my family don't know that I have this account on this website, not even my cousins and friends and mom. Don't worry, you're secret is safe with me. You live in Owahu? Or something like that.

yes the island of Oahu. My school is in manoa and farrington is in kalihi, a pretty tough area with a lot of polynesians.
