I think I hurt myself when binding but I'm closeted
Hello everyone, I am here for advice on what to do.
I bought my first binder a few weeks ago and I've never worn it much.
Yesterday, I wore it for only a hour and a half with a few breaks and everything was fine, but today I woke up and my chest hurts a little when a breathe, especially between the shoulder blades and my heart. Is it possible that I hurt myself from so little usage?
I'm sure the binder was my size so that can't be it, but I don't have a small chest and I have very light pectus excavatum so I'm wondering if maybe that could've worsened things.
I didn't know where to go with this because I'm closeted and all my friends are cis so they wouldn't know how to help me.
I'm sorry for dumping this here but I genuinely do not know what to do. I have stopped wearing it immediately and have decided to give my ribs a break but I'm scared that it will not go away and I'll be forced to come out.
