I have this bump already in the arm in the affected are that I picked at and its never healed. I couldn't figure out what it was so of course I have to pick at it to see. I have been wondering if that's a crps thing. I wasn't sure but figured the blood flow and other problems coukd make wounds slow or non healing.
I took the stuff off cause with the swelling I had blue hand.

I think a soft loose one would have been fine once it calmed down. It was somewhat if a comforting feeling ( I like tight things or light pressure, its soothing to me) but I needed some circulation.

I'm gonna have to ask my dr to look at the sore on my arm! Thanks for the info! I will pay attention to that and talk to my ot about it.
